    Exactly. It is intentionally open-ended: new "principles" can emerge, split, or retire as the taxonomy evolves. This is just version 1. The grid is a visual index and the fun part …

    Yes, I just borrowed the periodic table metaphor. "Elements of System Design" is a better name.

    Author here, great question :) If principles are the elements, we can think of each system as a "molecule" with some imagination. For example, an SQL database system has many princ…

    Totally fair.. I am not claiming periodicity here :) I just wanted to use the "periodic table" as a visual metaphor. The goal is to outline a mostly orthogonal set of system design…

    Author here, appreciate the share :) I was not expecting this to get so much attention. To clarify: this is indeed just a taxonomy of classic system-design principles. The periodic…

    It is based on the feedback shared by an undergraduate student -- pretty subjective. For instance, it is possible to graduate with a CS degree without even taking an introductory c…

    It is currently not possible to get rigorous summaries of paper chunks using GPT-4.

    Wouldn't more semantically related neighbors be retrieved by just increasing K?

    Cool project! Can you elaborate on "scalable" AI deployment? We are exploring the data + AI space in EvaDB and would love to exchange notes [1]. [1] https://github.com/georgia-tech…

    Very cool project, @MatthausK! What are your thoughts on reducing LLM cost? We are also exploring LLM-based data wrangling using EvaDB and cost is an important concern [1, 2, 3]. […

    Nice :) What were the interesting problems you faced in processing the survey data? If possible, can you share the prompt?

    Comment #37931427

    As we do not have ground truth, we only qualitatively checked for accuracy -- no quantitative metrics. We did find a significant drop in accuracy with GPT 3.5 as opposed to GPT 4. …

    Yes, there is definitely a human-in-the-loop element here. It would be great if you could share an example of the inconsistent output problem -- we also faced it. GPT-4 was much be…

    Great question! We iterated on the prompt for several days and manually verified the results for ~100 users. The results were pretty good: https://gist.github.com/gaurav274/506337f…
