We’re launching BenchmarkList: one place to track AI benchmarks, models, and capabilities.It’s surprisingly hard to get a complete picture of what AI can and can’t do. Most of the attention goes to a handful of benchmarks focused on coding, math, and reasoning abilities.

Supabase has pgvector which makes it pretty easy to get started :)!
Definitely, top-k is a very naive way to do RAG. I think people have experimented with using a cross encoder like approach or even letting the LLM choose the sources. We will experiment with more approaches like this :)
Thank you!
Not yet, we just saw their announcement today here (for context): https://blog.voyageai.com/2023/10/29/voyage-embeddings/.

We'll definitely work on adding this model next. Seems promising! Thanks for sharing.

"We will one day soon each have our own ‘mental palace’ expressed in multiple interfaces — a mental/cognitive and digital/visual place where we store our memories, which we can access via augmented reality and eventually, neural interface." - Possibly today with Stable Diffusion?

There's a lot of interesting sci-fi examples for what education technology can be like in this piece. It's definitely worth a read.

Hey! Would love to chat more about this if you have time
Kind of on the right track. As a student myself, we have realized the value of a college education comes from the on campus environment. So, if it's online, we will take gap quarters/years and universities will receive $0.(I am planning to take Fall quarter off because online is not worth it)
This is really helpful, thank you for sharing!
Sent you an email!

Ask HN: What is an ideal education to understand the bigger picture?

I've been thinking about this a lot during my time at University.

I'm curious to hear what you all think about the best ways to have a balanced education in college and what subjects/topics to self study. Or in the future, what...
