@ftranschel Hi Fabian, thanks for your comments! Our theme this year is open approaches to AI/ML, and one of the key issues with LLMs is that they hallucinate, as demonstrated in this image.

And regarding our marketing materials, we are completely volunteer-run and have little time or budget to generate these. Would you like to volunteer to help?
