This chapter explores the challenges developers face when working with AI models, focusing on their non-deterministic nature and the importance of context management. It emphasizes the need for practical experimentation and knowledge sharing to evaluate AI performance effectively. Additionally, the conversation highlights the emergence of open-source models and the significance of deploying smaller models at the edge, discussing the trade-offs involved in hardware and privacy.
Chroma is an open-source AI application database.
Anton Troynikov is a Founder at Chroma. He has a background in computer vision and previously worked at Meta. In this episode Anton speaks with Sean Falconer about Chroma, and the goal of building the memory and storage subsystem for the new computing primitive that AI models represent.
Sean’s been an academic, startup founder, and Googler. He has published works covering a wide range of topics from information visualization to quantum computing. Currently, Sean is Head of Marketing and Developer Relations at Skyflow and host of the podcast Partially Redacted, a podcast about privacy and security engineering.
