Building AI Assistants with Vectara-agentic and Arize

Thanks to the Vectara team for contributing this post! Introduction Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is a framework that enhances the capabilities of large language models (LLMs) by integrating external information retrieval systems to provide more relevant and factual responses.  In a standard RAG setup, the model retrieves documents from a knowledge base, and feeds those documents…

Best Practices for Selecting the Right Model for LLM-as-a-Judge Evaluations

When building and scaling LLM-based applications, ensuring model performance is critical. One powerful method for evaluating that performance is using an LLM as a judge. This allows you to systematically assess your model’s output and detect potential issues like hallucinations, incorrect responses, or inconsistencies that can arise as the model starts handling real-world data. In…

Arize AI + MongoDB: Leveraging Agent Evaluation and Memory to Build Robust Agentic Systems

In the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, agentic systems—autonomous agents capable of making decisions and learning from feedback loops in their environment—are becoming increasingly sophisticated. At the same time, as retrieval augmented generation (RAG) applications become more complex, a critical component of these systems is memory. AI agents depend on memory to perform effectively, adapt…

Exploring OpenAI’s o1-preview and o1-mini

OpenAI recently released its o1-preview, which they claim outperforms GPT-4o on a number of benchmarks. These models are designed to think more before answering and handle complex tasks better than their other models, especially science and math questions. We take a closer look at their latest crop of o1 models (including o1-mini), and we also…

Breaking Down Reflection Tuning: Enhancing LLM Performance with Self-Learning

A recent announcement on X boasted a tuned model with pretty outstanding performance, and claimed these results were achieved through reflection tuning. However, people were unable to reproduce the results. We dive into some recent drama in the AI community as a jumping off point for a discussion about Reflection 70B. In 2023, there was…

Composable Interventions for Language Models

Introduction We’re excited to be joined by Kyle O’Brien, Applied Scientist at Microsoft, to discuss his most recent paper, Composable Interventions for Language Models. Kyle and his team present a new framework, composable interventions, that allows for the study of multiple interventions applied sequentially to the same language model. The discussion will cover their key…
