You type a question, the AI responds. Ever wonder how it knows what you mean? 🤔
Here's a beginner's guide to:
- #NLP and #LLM 🗣️
- how text, images, videos become numbers 🔢
- semantic search 🔍
- regular vs #vectordatabase 🚀

@Cassandra @AstraDB

[Erick Ramirez @erickramirezau]

AI app proofs-of-concept is one thing. Deploying to production is another. Don't make the mistake of finding out your app won't scale.
Apache @Cassandra. Built for internet scale. 🚀
