In this episode of the Eye on AI podcast, Avthar Sewrathan, Lead Technical Product Marketing Manager at Timescale joins Craig Smith to explore how Postgres is transforming AI development with cutting-edge tools and open-source innovation.

With its robust, extensible framework, Postgres has become the go-to database for AI applications, from semantic search to retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). Avthar takes us through Timescale's journey from its IoT origins to disrupting the way developers handle vector search, embedding management, and high-performance AI workloads—all within Postgres.

We dive into Timescale's tools like PGVector, PGVector Scale, and PGAI Vectorizer, uncovering how they aid developers to build AI-powered systems without the complexity of managing multiple databases. Avthar explains how Postgres seamlessly handles structured and unstructured data, making it the perfect foundation for next-gen AI applications.

Learn how Postgres supports AI-driven use cases across industries like IoT, finance, and crypto, and why its open-source ecosystem is key to fostering collaboration and innovation.

Tune in to discover how Postgres is redefining AI databases, why Timescale's tools are a game-changer for developers, and what the future holds for AI innovation in the database space.
