π Open Source RAG with Hugging Face Enpoints
π About
Welcome to this Paul Graham Essay Bot - a friendly AI-powered system that demonstrates the power of Retrieval Augmented Generation using completely open source models! This application leverages modern AI technology to provide intelligent answers to your questions based on a collection of essays by Paul Graham, covering topics such as programming languages, startup culture, spam filtering, design principles, and the philosophy of hacking and innovation.
β¨ Features
- Open Source Models: Powered by NousResearch/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct for text generation and Snowflake/snowflake-arctic-embed-m for embeddings
- HuggingFace Integration: Models deployed as serving endpoints on HuggingFace
- Intelligent Retrieval: Utilizes RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) for accurate and contextual responses
- Fast & Responsive: Async processing for quick responses even with large document collections
- Content-Focused: Explore ideas and concepts from the essays, not just information about the author
π§ How It Works
Behind the scenes, this application:
- Loads and Processes Documents: Breaks down essay content into manageable chunks
- Creates Embeddings: Converts text into numerical representations using Snowflake/snowflake-arctic-embed-m
- Builds a Vector Database: Stores the embeddings in a FAISS vector store for efficient retrieval
- Retrieves Relevant Content: Finds the most relevant essay sections based on your questions
- Generates Thoughtful Responses: Uses Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct to craft helpful answers based on the retrieved content
π€ Example Questions
