I wonder if we'll see a new sort of "role" in the training (user, system, assistant) for unstrusted sources, I'm a little surprised we haven't already. In fact it would probably ma…

How much of the apology was written by Claude? How much of the release note process was written by Claude? Will they have better prompts going forward to make sure Claude doesn't w…

« Trust us, we’re doing this for the good of humanity » (fills pockets with stock value and externalities from data center polloution) « No seriously trust us , at least we’re not …

It's also hard to imagine them not doing this with any of the products they're building. "You can't use Claude to build an agent because that competes with Claude Code, you can't u…

"We won't use this product to spy or build weapons but you'll have to trust us, but we're also going to intentionally lie to you when you break our terms of service but trust us."

The silently never telling you is so insidious on top of it being ridiculous given how they trained the model in the first place. We do distributed model training for embedder/rera…

I work with you so I'm bias but I think this is neat.

Thanks for the feedback! In regards to contention, the answer is definitely dependent on how you host. We've had a lot of experience running different ML workloads and from an SRE …

I'd be super interested to here more about what you all do in this space, currently Antfly (and Termite) doesn't handle custom content types explicitly because we've mostly focused…

https://github.com/antflydb/antfly/pull/8 Upon another look it looks like we were actually missing the pause lock for the backfill operation too during a shard split though, I also…

I guessed that neo4j gets this question a lot so I went to see if they had a good blog post and this one is pretty good https://neo4j.com/blog/cypher-and-gql/10-things-you-can-do-w…

Possibly, Amazon and Google also made the ability for smaller startup based DB companies to go that route with things like ValKey and OpenSearch. LLMs have made it super easy to tr…

Nope! Awesome you’re poking around though. I’m currently working on deterministic simulation testing and a feature set to allow pausing of index backfills but it’s not fully implem…

Great question! I think the fundamentally hard problem with distributed systems (at least for me!) comes down to the complicated distributed state machines you have to manage rathe…

Fascinating! We settled on Quic with Protobuf because it was more performant in our testing than the gRPC when coupled with the backoff, failure cases (node startup ordering server…

I've added a specific example for that using the go-sdk https://github.com/antflydb/antfly/pull/5 here!

I can't speak for everyone, knowledge graphs are the "new hotness" of the ai space (RAG and MCP are seeing a lull in their hype cycles I guess). But I've used graphs professionally…

There's some examples in the quickstart on the website but I'll add an explicit e2e example case for that too. Otherwise the tests for that are a little lower level in the code! I'…

Thanks! Fixed that up!

Oh thanks for the 404 on the verify link (I abstracted out the auth OIDC for cross domain login and must have missed a path). Yes good call, I tried to start that on the website wi…

Definitely open to working with you on supporting even better tooling for this as I imagine many different "styles" of migration will be necessary. The number 1 supported migration…

Yes we do use SIMD heavily! https://github.com/ajroetker/go-highway I also added SME support for Darwin for most algorithms. We use it in the full-text index, all over the vector i…

Not strictly google but microsoft/bing too, here's the top ones from my notes: https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.14452 spfresh, https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.08566 spann, https://arxiv.org/a…

I built this for myself because I hated running a large ElasticSearch instance at work and wanted something that would autoscale and something that allowed for reindexing data. I a…
