For me, Weaviate is a place where I feel at home, and where I'm excited every day to work with my colleagues 🥰

@kiwicopple @bobvanluijt @supabase You can have a look at this wonderful destination in Italy (close to 2 international airports): https://t.co/NwC89BgTDT.
Or get in touch with https://t.co/ivRFFkvuMK.
For both I can make introductions if you like.

[Jessie de Groot @jessie_groot]

@kiwicopple @bobvanluijt @supabase Happy to give you tips, let me know what kind of tips you appreciate :)

[Bob van Luijt @bobvanluijt]

💡 A vector database like @weaviate_io is great for vector search, but did you know there are many exciting use cases where the vector DB plays a unique role?
1️⃣ Retrieval Augmented Generation – We can inject data into the generative models by weaving (pun intended) the database and the model together.
2️⃣ Hybrid Search – Combining vector search with vector search is ideal for searching through your datasets, especially if you use domain-specific language.
3️⃣ Generative Feedback Loops – You can store generated content in the database to search over!
🤩 Did you know you can do all of this with Weaviate? Many users combine models (#opensource, @OpenAI, @cohere, etc.) and frameworks and tooling (@langchain, @llama_index, @UnstructuredIO, etc.) with Weaviate and the modules.

[Jessie de Groot @jessie_groot]

@aj__chan I'm SO happy you joined Weaviate!! Yay 🥳
Looking forward to meeting you in October IRL 🤩
