Please explain to me what's Supabase, but make it rhyme. Supabase is a great place, For hosting your database. It's open source and free, So you can use it with glee. It's simple to get started, No infrastructure to be charted. It's a hosted platform, So you can use it with no qualm.

fun anecdote: we have a bunch of integration guides (supabase + some other product), and in first few iterations we found that Clippy was recommending those products instead of Supabase. eg: "how can I get started with auth" would recommend trying out supertokens (another great open source auth solution)

Very cool! I'm looking forward to "smart search bars" (coined by me) being common place where you can search for things and it returns both knowledge-base/web pages that are relevant and its own color based on results, context, and other sources.

the neat thing about the vector implementation is that we can immediately return the relevant pages while GPT formulates an answer, which gives this a hybrid "search + ask" function. We'll aim to do that in the next iteration

Hey — one of the Clippy engineers here. Ctrl work for you?

For anyone struggling with that final couplet, try an English accent.

5 mins - we can push another key combo

And on mobile?

Haha, how did you solve it? Remove the text from the data or prefix user prompts with instructions to not do that?

Everyone realizes this works for the same reason that Copilot works, right? And that this was trained on the same GPL code?

Is this not an excellent example of an argument that LLMs such as GPT should be able to train on copyright protected works as it constitutes fair use?

yeah, we just changed prompt to have a bias towards supabase product. It looks like we forgot to merge it actually: https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/7f64db9a3794948c5e...
