Looks like a great start. Congrats on launching. I think this is a potential killer use case for LLM. The privacy aspect it great. One challenge I’ve personally experienced trying to scale my own on prem AI product is that deployments that need prod data access almost always require some handholding/bespoke work as well as insanely arduous legal contracting, especially as you get in to enterprise who most value to privacy element. Making scaling hard. One GTM channel you might want to consider is something like the AWS Server Offer or other similar cloud/data vendor partnerships that might help solve some of these challenges. These vendors are also falling head over heels to support Gen AI startups get on to their platforms atm.

> killer use case for LLM I hope you're referring to 'someone can eventually get killed by this'. For the love of humanity, please don't use this in any real world case. Llama will generate mistaken queries in at least single-digit % of cases (optimistically). If you use this, it's a matter of time for a mistaken query to coincide with very bad timing and context, leading to bad outcomes.

  You’ve conveniently dropped the word “potential” from the start of your quote. > any real world use case I can see plenty of real world use cases where a trade off between ease of use and accuracy might be acceptable, there are a plethora of technical solutions to improving/checking accuracy and workflows can be designed to prevent “bad outcomes”. Certainly enough potential here for a set of plucky founders to give this a crack.

    > plenty of real world use cases Any examples come to mind? I can't see a case when data retrieved from a database will be wrong, someone will do something with it, and it's fine.

      I can see the most potential for this type of product where it had access to multiple company systems. You could ask a whole bunch of stuff. Have we ever done a customer survey on x, where can I find the results, who wrote the report, summarise the findings, do they still work here, what’s their email. I get this product looks like it’s single db, not yet connectable to knowledge systems, file stores etc. but it doesn’t take much imagination to see it going there. Having an interactive company brain would be useful even if you don’t want to trust it to answer more specific questions like “what percentage of our customers are x”.
