Embracing Open-Source in Cloud Evolution

Hey everyone, thank you so much for watching the 95th Weaviate Podcast! We are beyond honored to feature Dai Vu from Google on this one, alongside Weaviate Co-Founder Bob van Luijt! This podcast dives into all things Google Cloud Marketplace and the state of AI. Beginning with the proliferation of Open-Source models and how Dai sees the evolving landscape with respect to things like Gemini Pro 1.5, Gemini Nano and Gemma, as well as the integration of 3rd party model providers such as Llama 3 on Google Cloud platforms such as Vertex AI. Bob and Dai continue to unpack the next move for open-source infrastructure providers and perspectives around "AI-Native" applications, trends in data gravity, perspectives on benchmarking, and Dai's "aha" moment in AI!
