I am just curious, kind of like a case study. What would YC partners advise a startup like JEV in their current situation?
Giants are releasing open source versions, the market signals are confusing that it's not a big leap but everyone is trying to benefit from JEV's hype.
Obviously one advice would be to keep building and go deeper into the RLCD hypothesis and innovative.
Vector embeddings natively are capable of much more than just retrieval. Even when OpenAI released their initial embedding models, it mentioned that their embeddings are natively capable of Search, Clustering, Recommendations, Anomaly Detection, Diversity Measurement, and Classification.
But everything is concentrated around Vector DBs and RAG, and is progressing towards GraphRAG and Knowledge Graphs. Why are the other representations being underused? Like, why didn’t they catch up?
Everyone is complaining that RAG is dead, Vector DBs are done, they are expensive, and the ROI is not worth it. I know most of this is noise. Embeddings are meaningful and a part of many production pipelines. But why don’t these people try to get more value out of their existing stored embeddings?
I don’t know if it’s just me being delusional, but I feel there is a lot of hidden potential that is untapped. Why is retrieval so dominant? I mean, yeah, search has throughout history been a really important operation across any data. But the purpose of embeddings itself was to capture semantic relations beyond just search. Is it because search is the easiest to productize and build features around? And other use cases are not so frequent?
Had been waiting for months and the cards finally got delivered today. No one at my workplace was excited, maybe because no one cares for AI stuff that i work on. But I just wanted to share it with you guys.
Can't wait to build the server and start working on them.
