Or you can deploy on app engine, lambda, firebase, etc. Kubernetes is not the only game in town. Sometimes shipping asap is more important. As with just about anything in tech, it’s about tradeoffs. I may be biased, since I worked in devops

It’s not necessarily that it’s hard, but to be effective with kubernetes you need to understand a lot of infrastructure concepts like DNS, load balancing strategies, docker, storage drivers, service discovery, what exactly a pod is, what ex

Unstructured Sensory input driven by these large neural networks, if I had to guess. To be able to visually determine weight, texture, and how durable something is can be done with those systems so long as we have a training set.

Then that tooling is required, like visual studio is a common one I know about in windows land. Though nobody should care if I edited my text files with neovim as long as I still used the same toolchain as everyone else.

Or… yknow… I could just write the code… Instead of going through a multi step process to get an LLM to generate it, review it, reject it, and repeat… I wonder why you reply to these comments, but not my other asking what you use LLMs for an

Right, but using git is a team wide thing. I can’t use perforce while my company is on git. But if I do or do not use an LLM to assist me while coding, my team is unaffected. If someone liked jetbrains, but your team used neovim, would you

I have no love for openai, but they did make the fastest growing product of all time. There’s value in being the ones to do that. I do agree it’s a very very thin line.

I feel bad for your team. Let people work how they want. I wouldn’t not hire someone on the basis of them not using a language server. The creator of the Odin language famously doesn’t use one. He’s says that he, specifically, is faster wit

What kinds of things do you with these LLMs? I feel like I’m good at understanding context. I’ve been working in AI startups over the last 2 years. Currently at an AI search startup. Managing context for info retrieval is the name of the ga

If effect, kind of. The money being invested does not go directly to investors. It goes to the cost of R&D, which in turn increases the value of openai shares, then the early investors can sell those shares to realize those gains. The d

That’s a slippery slope that I don’t think holds up. When designing the schema, you keep performance and security in mind. You need to do the same for REST APIs. Just because some nodes don’t have edges that connect to some other nodes does

There are lots of ways to go about RAG, many do not require graphs at all. I recommend looking at some simple spark queries to get an idea of what’s happening. What I’ve seen is using LLMs to identify what possible relationships some inform

I worked at a small company experimenting with RAG. We used neo4j as the graph database and used the LLM to generate parts of the spark queries.

Well the rate of new LLMs keep coming out, but since they’re all trying to model language, they should all be fairly interchangeable and potentially will converge. It’s not hard for a product to swap the underlying LLM for a given task.

IMO there is only a B2B market for this kind of thing. I’ve heard of a few very large companies using glean ( https://www.glean.com/ ) This is the route I’d take if I wanted to make a business around rag.
