Weaviate Podcast

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the 67th Weaviate Podcast, announcing Weaviate on the AWS Marketplace! This was one of my favorite podcasts to date with a deep dive on the details of running RAG applications in the cloud, our general understanding of LLM Fine-Tuning and RAG, as well as a really interesting discussion on VPCs and Hybrid SaaS! I hope you find the podcast useful, as always we are more than happy to answer any questions or discuss any ideas you have about the content presented in the podcast!

Hey everyone! Here is a clip from our newest Weaviate podcast with Farshad Farahbakhshian, Gen AI specialist at AWS and Etienne Dilocker, CTO and Co-Founder of Weaviate! This podcast announces Weaviate on the AWS marketplace and is packed with info on running Weaviate in the cloud such as this clip explaining how Hybrid SaaS works! I hope you find the clip useful, we are more than happy to answer any questions you have about the content in this clip!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the 66th Weaviate Podcast with David Garnitz, the creator of VectorFlow! VectorFlow (open-sourced on GH and linked below) is a new tool for ingesting data into Vector Databases such as Weaviate! There is quite an interesting End-to-End stack emerging at the ingestion layer, from retrieving data from misc. sources such as Slack, Salesforce, GitHub, Google Drive, Notion, ... to then Chunking the Text (maybe with the use of Visual Document Layout parsers like what Unstructured is imagining), extracting Metadata potentially (say the "age" of an NBA player as in the Evaporate-Code+ research) -- then sending this data off to embedding model inference and unpacking that can of worms from inference acceleration to load balancing, and finally -- importing the vectors themselves to Weaviate! I learned so much from this conversation, I really hope you enjoy listening and please check out VectorFlow below!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the Weaviate Podcast! I am SUPER excited to publish my conversation with Ofir Press! Ofir has done incredible work pioneering AliBi attention and Self-Ask prompting and I learned so much from speaking with him! As always we are more than happy to answer any questions or discuss any ideas you have about the content in the podcast!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the 64th Weaviate Podcast with Shishir Patil and Tianjun Zhang, co-authors of Gorilla: Large Language Models Connected with Massive APIs! I learned so much about Gorilla from Shishir and Tianjun, from the APIBench dataset to the continually evolving APIZoo, how the models are trained with Retrieval-Aware Training, Self-Instruct Training data and how the authors think of fine-tuning LLaMA-7B models for tasks such as this, and many more! I hope you enjoy the podcast! As always I am more than happy to answer any questions or discuss any ideas you have about the content in the podcast!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the 63rd Weaviate Podcast, I couldn't be more excited to welcome Nils Reimers back to the podcast!! Similar to our debut episode together, we began by describing the latest collaboration of Weaviate and Cohere (episode 1, new multilingual embedding models; episode 2, rerankers!), and then continued into some of the key questions around search technology. In this one, we discussed the importance of temporal queries and metadata extraction, long document representation, and future directions for Retrieval-Augmented Generation! I hope you enjoy the podcast, as always I am more than happy to answer any questions or discuss any ideas you have about the content in the podcast! Thank you so much for watching!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the 62nd Weaviate Podcast with Atai Barkai! We are stepping into the meta with this one for a podcast about podcasts! Podcasts are one of the biggest opportunities of new technologies, starting with Whisper's ability to transcribe audio to text and advances with speaker diarization, .. the question to be explored is, What Vector Database and LLM applications can we build with this data?! What is the future of podcasting with these new technologies?! I had so much fun discussing all these ideas with Atai! As always we are more than happy to answer any questions or discuss any ideas you have about content discussed in the podcast! Thank you so much for watching!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the 61st episode of the Weaviate Podcast! I am beyond excited to publish this one! I first met Rohit at the Cal Hacks event hosted by UC Berkeley where we had a debate about the impact of Semantic Caching! Rohit taught me a ton about the topic and I think it's going to be one of the most impactful early applications of Generative Feedback Loops! Rohit is building Portkey, a SUPER interesting LLM middleware that does things like load balancing between LLM APIs, and as discussed in the podcast there are all sorts of opportunities for this kind of space whether it be routing to tool-specific LLMs, different cost / accuracy requirements, or multiple models in the HuggingGPT sense. It was amazing chatting with Rohit, this was the best dive into LLMOps I have personally been apart of! As always we are more than happy to answer any questions or discuss any ideas you have about the content in the podcast!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the 60th Weaviate podcast with Patrice Bourgougnon! Patrice is the creator of WPSolr, integrating AI search capabilities with Wordpress and Woocommerce. Patrice is one of the most active contributors to Weaviate, filing issues and poking holes in new releases! Patrice shared incredible feedback on Weaviate and how he sees the state of Vector Databases and Search! As always, we are more than happy to answer any questions or ideas you have about the content discussed in the podcast! Thanks for watching!

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the 58th episode of the Weaviate Podcast! I am SUPER excited to welcome Andriy Muylar! Andriy is the Co-Founder of Nomic AI, a company fresh off a $17M series A raise! Nomic has created some incredible products such as Atlas and GPT4All! I was really impressed by Andriy's vision of the state and forecasted evolution of these topics! I hope you enjoy the podcast!
