Preventing AI Hallucination: Harnessing Pinecone Vector Database & Llama-2 for Retrieval Augmented Generation

LLMs like Llama 2, Flan T5, and Bloom are essential for conversational AI use cases, but updating their knowledge requires retraining, which is time-consuming and expensive. However, with Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) using Amazon Sagemaker JumpStart and Pinecone vector database, LLMs can be deployed and kept up to date with relevant information to prevent AI Hallucination.

Streamline MLOps with Amazon SageMaker Pipelines and GitHub Actions

MLOps is essential for integrating machine learning models into existing systems, and Amazon SageMaker offers features like Pipelines and Model Registry to simplify the process. This article provides a step-by-step implementation for creating custom project templates that integrate with GitHub and GitHub Actions, allowing for efficient collaboration and deployment of ML models.

Enhancing RAG-based Intelligent Document Assistants: Unleashing Analytical Capabilities with Amazon Bedrock

Conversational AI has evolved with generative AI and large language models, but lacks specialized knowledge for accurate answers. Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) connects generic models to internal knowledge bases, enabling domain-specific AI assistants. Amazon Kendra and OpenSearch Service offer mature vector search solutions for implementing RAG, but analytical reasoning questions requir...

Revolutionizing Last-Mile Delivery: Streamlining Workforce Management with Amazon Forecast and AWS Step Functions

Getir, the ultrafast grocery delivery pioneer, has implemented an end-to-end workforce management system using Amazon Forecast and AWS Step Functions, resulting in a 70% reduction in modelling time and a 90% improvement in prediction accuracy. This comprehensive project calculates courier requirements and solves the shift assignment problem, optimizing shift schedules and minimizing missed orders.

Mixtral 8x7B: The French AI Challenger to OpenAI

Mistral AI announces Mixtral 8x7B, an AI language model that matches OpenAI's GPT-3.5 in performance, bringing us closer to having a ChatGPT-3.5-level AI assistant that can run locally. Mistral's models have open weights and fewer restrictions than those from OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google.

Building Interactive Web UIs for LLMs with Amazon SageMaker JumpStart

The article discusses the launch of ChatGPT and the rise in popularity of generative AI.
