AI Engineering Course: Day 2
Posted on:January 19, 2024 at 08:40 PMI had done some RAG-style prototypes in a Jupyter Notebook a few months back using LangChain and some hosted vector databases such as Pinecone. While these Notebooks helped me understand the features of what a RAG-style Chatbot might perform, it left a lot to be desired in terms of how it was working under the hood. This Day 2 tutorial really helped me explore what exactly is happening when we used embeddings to create context for a LLM-powered chatbot.
AI Engineering Course: Day 1
Posted on:January 12, 2024 at 04:08 PMI have a proof-of-concept working version of QC Stacks running on Vercel. I'm in the process of migrating the work to Azure and using MongoDB as the database. I chose Azure due to my full-time position at Microsoft and wanted exposure and experience using a more production-ready environment that I might encounter in the real world.
Adding a Database
Posted on:November 22, 2023 at 07:59 PMWorking in text and JSON files is great for experimentation and speed, but I've been itching to put some of what we've been retrieving and generating into something more permanent like a database.
A Brief Pause for GPTs
Posted on:November 13, 2023 at 05:35 PMI took a detour and decided to build a GPT referenced in OpenAI’s keynote from last week. I wanted to create one that had at least some information attached to the retrieval features and could call an API via a custom action.
