What is a vector index and how does it benefit my business?

You are probably familiar with traditional databases. For example, a teacher at a school will need to enter students’ grades into a system where they get stored, and at the end of the year the grades would need to be retrieved to create the report card for each student. Or an employee database might store employees’ home addresses, pay grades, start dates, and other crucial information. Traditionally, organisations use a structure called a relational database, where different types of data are stored in different tables, with links between them, and they can be queried using a special language called SQL.

How AI can predict costs of projects

A problem we’ve come across repeatedly is how AI can be used to estimate how much a project will cost, based on information known before the project begins, or soon after it starts. By “project” I mean a large project in any industry, including construction, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, IT, or transport, but this could equally apply to something like a kitchen renovation.

Should lawyers stop using generative AI to prepare their legal arguments?

Senior lawyers should stop using generative AI to prepare their legal arguments! Or should they? A High Court judge in the UK has told senior lawyers off for their use of ChatGPT, because it invents citations to cases and laws that don’t exist!
