Why LangChain is King, the Evolution of RAG, AI Chips, 50% Off ODSC Europe, and the Future of Databases
Open Data Science Conference (ODSC)
The leading applied data science and AI conference, with 4 global events and nearly 180 meetups worldwide every year.
Let’s explore why LangChain is rapidly gaining popularity and how it stands out in the crowded field of LLM frameworks.
While RAG is necessary, it’s not sufficient: we argue that advanced knowledge retrieval requires agentic strategies.
The progress of financial data engineering includes advancements in both foundational concepts and the development of new tools, frameworks, and technologies designed to tackle a wide range of data-related challenges.
In a recent episode of the AiX Podcast, Mike Stonebraker shared his insights into the world of databases, the evolution of technology, and the nuances of raising startup funding.
Ahead of his ODSC West session, Dr. Timothy Chan discusses popular A/B testing methods used in the industry to get ideal results.
Let’s have a quick discussion about vector data stores, what they are, and why you should care.
