I am really excited about this update to Azure AI Search which make build enterprise chat (RAG) applications both cheaper and more performant. @AzureSearch https://t.co/7vYEenmyYc

[Liam Cavanagh @liamca]

Anyone doing anything with RAG apps should follow @pamelafox. She creates great tools and information on advanced RAG techniques. Including this one on evaluating RAG. https://t.co/LJd5urT0o6 https://t.co/h2KcrD09hY

I'll be talking about evaluating LLM apps (especially RAG apps, my fav) at Python Data Science Day at 2PM PT today.

Join the stream @ https://t.co/nKhaOE7hz5 (It's going all day!)

Everyone, do the Wordle today! Lol

[Liam Cavanagh @liamca]

@jennifermarsman Woo hoo, first time I ever guessed it in one try! 😀

[Liam Cavanagh @liamca]

A lot of people assume Vector Search by itself is all you need to get great search results to power applications like Enterprise ChatGPT, but this blog helps understand aspects everyone should think about when choosing the correct approach.

[Pablo Castro @pmc]

We're seeing lots of generative AI apps that use retrieval-augmented generation: an LLM for reasoning and a vector database for knowledge. Better ranking means better facts fed to the LLM, here's how Azure Cognitive Search can help with that:

We now have native Azure Cognitive Search support in @langchain using the new vector search capability!

I've loved the work the #langchain folks have been doing since day one, super fun to get to collaborate with @hwchase17 and crew on this.

[Liam Cavanagh @liamca]

Really excited to have support of Azure Cognitive Search in #langchain along with our new Hybrid and Vector Search support -- making it really easy to build Enterprise #ChatGPT apps https://t.co/rC25xgHgm4 #llms #cognitivesearch #azure

[Jennifer Marsman @jennifermarsman]

Listening to Marco's talk at #MSBuild. He's covered some great content on the new Bing, Azure AI Studio, Prompt Flow, summarization, Forms Recognizer, Cognitive Search to ground in your own data, Azure Content Safety, dense captioning, video summarization & locating frames...

[Liam Cavanagh @liamca]

@pablocas did an amazing video that talks about how ChatGPT can be used to work with your enterprise data https://t.co/7ydFww5xWi via @YouTube

Do you have #Azure Cognitive Search questions?

If you weren't in-person at the #Microsoft Ignite conference this week, or you just couldn't make it to the Expert Meet-up, and you have questions. Let me know! If there's interest, I'll organize an online meetup and Q&A. #MSIgnite
