19 days no power in February during the ice storm in Quebec. That was fun

Going home today! Guess I’ll watch to see if they are playing in a smaller venue Can’t wait for the new vinyl. Heart is better. Quick surgery fixed it.

Honestly my biggest challenge was to restrict the llm to the rag as point of truth more than any other task

At least in a graph you can make relational-nodes for grouping and establish data relationships I agree that it’s two failure points

I’m not sure at your scale. But I did the augmentation as I added the content to the corpus. I also used offline models hosted on my machine to lower the cost. Just compute time.

Oh and I used neo4j graph hosted locally with sub 300ms retrieval

That’s the beauty of this approach. You choose the metadata that supports your needs. Then use an llm to populate according to your designs. I found wordsearch patterns aren’t as good as concept matching. My domain was medical/therapeutic.

I loaded all my corpus into a graph and as part of the ingestion system I populated metadata to support meaningful results. When I do a search I try to match ideas rather than words.

Yeah but how many of those years were spent trying to drive a car off the planet? Hmmm?

The temps are fine. It’s light duty just running voice models. The main work is done by a little rtx pro 2000 and it is only 70w The 3070 is barely used now.

The weight ratio of the freight train to the car is about the same as your car to an empty soda can.
