Panel moderator: Guoliang Li
Panelist: Amr El Abbadi, Lei Chen, Gao Cong, Feifei Li

Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized numerous applications, and many of their techniques are intricately connected to our database community. It is essential for our community to play a pivotal role in data-centric AI systems, which encompasses areas such as data preparation, data cleaning, data integration, data selection for LLM, LLM training systems, LLM inference systems, LLM for database systems, and LLM for multi-modal data management.

In this panel, we will explore the following key questions:

1. How can our database community contribute effectively to AI systems?

2. In what ways are LLMs revolutionizing database systems?

3. How do we construct robust Data + AI systems?
