🚨 RAG is broken and nobody's talking about it. Stanford just exposed the fatal flaw killing every "AI that reads your docs" product. It's called "Semantic Collapse", and it happens the moment your knowledge base hits critical mass. Here's the brutal math (and why your RAG system is already dying):

A waste of food. A waste of lives. A waste of American resources and power. We must find a way to buy and distribute this food on behalf of the American people…I will pay for it personally. @realdonaldtrump @marcorubio what happened to your Christian faith? "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat…”

"How does @SourcetableApp process vectors over so much data?" Cassandra is our workhorse database. With the addition of vectors and (soon to be accord transactions) at inhuman scale, it was a complete no brainer. The @DataStax team has been super supportive.

Most devs don't know how easy it is to switch over to @DataStax #AstraDB from #MongoDB using the Astra Data API. If you're using Python or Node.js, it's just a couple of lines of code! datastax.com/blog/making-ast…

We love the new streaming support in Assistants API so we spent the last 5 days implementing it. Today we're announcing support for the new streaming runs functionality in our open source, drop-in compatible version of Assistants API--Astra Assistants. Try our service for free or run it yourself. We support multiple LLM and embedding providers using @LiteLLM
Streaming is now available in the Assistants API! You can build real-time experiences with tools like Code Interpreter, retrieval, and function calling. platform.openai.com/docs/ass…

This week in time for #reinvent2023 we added AWS Bedrock support to @DataStax's Astra Assistants API. Just add your AWS creds to your OpenAI object and pick your model (for embedding and completion). Here I'm calling @AnthropicAI claude-2 through @awscloud bedrock with the OpenAI SDK For more examples and details on api coverage check out this github repo github.com/datastax/astra-as…

I'm concerned about rising political violence in Pakistan & call on all parties to resolve differences peacefully & adhere to the rule of law & democracy. My thoughts are with the Pakistani people, especially as they recover from the humanitarian crisis caused by recent flooding.

Ok seriously. #ChatGPT is either really good at making things up or... does anyone know if this exists and somehow ChatGPT just leaked a secret? 🤣
If ChatGPT says it, it must be true... 😉
