We have multiple teams kind of working in silos so we haven't really consolidated on a single enterprise solution yet. That said, the team I'm on has consolidated on using qdrant with different collections. We've also start

I think AI is really exciting, I'm having a lot of fun building with it... but this is clearly the golden Era of AI. The future will see deep consolidation, most people will struggle to compete. The future will be full of wealth, but

"How many multi-million-dollar funded startups did this just absolutely obsolete?" The play with AI isn't to build the tools to help businesses make money, the play is to directly build the businesses that makes the money. In

"The 10M context ability wipes out most RAG stack complexity immediately." I'm skeptical, my past experience is just becaues the context has room to stuff whatever you want in it, the more you stuff in the context the less ac

This is becoming so common in AI discussions. Everyone with a real use case is opaque, or just flat out doesn't talk. The ones who are talking have toy use cases. I think its because it's so hard to build a moat, and techniques

Open Source models are getting real good, and many of them don't care how you use them. It's free as in speech and as in beer.

I'm only going to pay for one subscription, i'm willing to switch over to Gemini if it is less lazy than GPT-4. The new model was supposed to be better, but I still find it lacking. It's frustrating because the earlier vers

I think fine tuning makes sense when you need some domain specific knowledge to properly read, analyze, and interpret the information you're passing to it. But its not an information store itself. The most valuable skill an LLM can ha

Oh funny, i've been working on a similar project, analyzing earning call transcripts using LLM's. My first attempt was with BERTopic. The results were awful. My second attempt was with a finetuned 7B version of Mistral, with he

Is there a DSPy module, where I can give a schema, and can start asking sql questions in a structured way?

I've noticed most people I've met, whom seem to have strong negative opinions about him haven't listened to a single episode.

If he believes what he's saying, sounds like something congress should investigate. Maybe he should testify under oath.

Why is this government officer, speaking just to a newspaper more reliable than the other government officer who spoke under oath? There was legislation to bring transparency to the topic, and it was stripped at the last minute by 2 congres

I'm really excited to get 3.5 with JSON mode. Trying to get it to consistently generate JSON has been one of my biggest issues. I've been playing with GPT-4-Turbo's JSON mode, and it works so well.

What would you reccomend?

We used the AI to help us find gaps which were being incorrectly billed. So we could just measure the incorrectly billed dollars directly.

I'm not completely convinced OpenAI is not a public good. I've started using it at my company, we found literally millions in value... and it cost us about $60 in tokens.

I built a little proof of concept that uses it in the RAG pipeline, it's been proving quite useful, so we're just starting the move to production. It's probably going to stay, but I'm also evaluating databricks new vecto

I've been using Qdrant. Can't speak highly enough of the core functionality. It's fast, good accuracy, easy to use etc. I think there are some things I wish were easier, for example finding and updating points, and the UI c

Going to make a service for quick filling forms that takes advantage of this :)

I remember when Notch was playing with this space game with a slimed down assembly language he created. He stopped working on it unfortunately, but I still think there's a whole potential genre of hacking on a game. Not a "press

I don't think the hardware is the main product. I think the AI is, but they didn't want to be "just an app" they want to be the first OS for the new way of computing. So they designed a new device. I wouldn't be

Smart phones are closer to smart cameras. I use the phone app maybe once a month. I'd argue it might be viable to build a smart phone that has no phone.

The financial economy feels like a python that consumed a giant lunch, and has that giant lunch moving through the thing in one big lump trying to get digested. I think the primary issue is that during the pandemic we printed a bunch of dol

I'd be surprised if a prompt that general would actually yield anything useful.

It's weird that stuff like this can make it to the front page, but nobody is talking about the Schumer amendment[0], or maybe even more interesting, the push by a few Republicans mostly funded by defense contractors to gut the amendmen
