This post was written with Zach Heath of Kyruus Health. When health plan members need care, they shouldn’t need a dictionary. Yet millions face this exact challenge—describing symptoms in everyday language while healthcare references clinical terminology and complex specialty classifications. This disconnect forces members to become amateur medical translators, attemptingContinue Reading

Evaluating the performance of large language models (LLMs) goes beyond statistical metrics like perplexity or bilingual evaluation understudy (BLEU) scores. For most real-world generative AI scenarios, it’s crucial to understand whether a model is producing better outputs than a baseline or an earlier iteration. This is especially important for applicationsContinue Reading

Vector embeddings have become essential for modern Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) applications, but organizations face significant cost challenges as they scale. As knowledge bases grow and require more granular embeddings, many vector databases that rely on high-performance storage such as SSDs or in-memory solutions become prohibitively expensive. This cost barrierContinue Reading
