How to Evaluate LLM Performance

Join us for the next Vibe Coding Meetup, hosted by Sam Silver with guest speaker Jonathan Seller, as we explore how to evaluate LLM performance.

Building with LLMs is one thing — knowing whether they’re actually performing well is another. This session will look at practical approaches to evaluating outputs, measuring performance, and building more reliable AI applications.

This session will include technical content and is particularly relevant for developers and builders working with LLMs, RAG, and AI-powered applications.

Come ready to learn, ask questions, and connect with others building with AI.

Speaker: Jonathan Seller
