Former leader at Amazon AI Labs and Yahoo's New York lab, Edo Liberty, talks about Pinecone's vector database technology. They discuss challenges in VDB tech, unique approaches, future trends, and leadership philosophy. Explore evolving AI technologies, efficient vector search techniques, database efficiency optimization, and tradeoffs in database systems. Insights on AI startup success using vector databases.

Welcome to the latest episode of our podcast featuring Edo Liberty, an AI expert and former creator of SageMaker at Amazon’s AI labs. In this episode, Edo discusses how his team at Pinecone.io is tackling the problem of hallucinations in large language models like ChatGPT. Edo’s approach involves using vector embeddings to create a long-term memory database for large language models. By converting authoritative and trusted information into vectors, and loading them into the database, the system provides a reliable source of information for large language models to draw from, reducing the likelihood of inaccurate responses. Throughout the episode, Edo explains the technical details of his approach and shares some of the potential applications for this technology, including AI systems that rely on language processing. Edo also discusses the future of AI and how this technology could revolutionise the way we interact with computers and machines. With his insights and expertise in the field, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the latest developments in AI and language processing.
