Testing Hugging Face Serverless Text-To-Speech Models

Testing Hugging Face Serverless Text-To-Speech Models

Looking to make your AI a bit more personable or easier to communicate with? In today's article by Bruce Nielson, we'll be testing out some ways of making an LLM have text-to-speech functionality using the Hugging Face framework.

PDFs vs HTML: The Importance of Metadata for Retrieval Augmented Generation

PDFs vs HTML: The Importance of Metadata for Retrieval Augmented Generation

In our ongoing series of AI tutorials, we have been focusing on using EBUP documents instead of PDFs. In today's article, we will dive a bit into the reasons for why that is, and the differences between PDFs and HTML documents when it comes to AI frameworks. We also have a look into how you can use PDF documents with AI.

Implementing a Lexical Search

Implementing a Lexical Search

In a previous post, our expert on AI, Bruce Nielson, discussed how to run a hybrid search using AI wherein we could merge a lexical search and a semantic search together to create single higher quality result. Today, we will dive into how to conduct just a lexical search as to better showcase the differences.

Hybrid Search for Retrieval Augmented Generation

Hybrid Search for Retrieval Augmented Generation

In a previous blog post, we introduced our "Book Search Archive," which we have been using to experiment with using AI to search and extrapolate information. In today's blog post with Bruce Nielson, we'll be discussing "hybrid searches" to better improve upon our AI model and showcase the power of an AI-driven search.

An AI Tech Support Agent

An AI Tech Support Agent

Large companies love to talk about AI and how they are trying to incorporate it into their business model. However, especially for smaller companies, some business owners may assume that there just isn't any real use for AI in their industry, causing them to feel like they are falling behind everyone else in modernizing their company. In today's article by Bruce Nielson, we'll dive into one real-world example of how any business can take advantage of AI: An AI Tech Support Agent.

Haystack Streaming Text Generation

Haystack Streaming Text Generation

In this post, we're going to give our sample Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) Pipeline a bit of a makeover. Specifically, we’ll tweak it to “stream” results from multiple nodes, letting us show off what we’ve got as soon as it rolls in—no more waiting for everything to pile up at the end.

Avoiding Text Truncations in RAG

Avoiding Text Truncations in RAG

In our series of articles on AI, we have been exploring cost-effective ways of building AI and ML models ourselves, helping anyone get into AI right now. However, a downside of the sentence embedder model we have been using is a tendency for text to get truncated, reducing overall performance of the RAG system. In today's article, we will explore how to overcome that problem.

Part of that includes our ongoing free series of tutorials and demos showcasing how you can get started with AI and ML right now. In this one, join Bruce Nielson as he explored how to use Hugging Face Generators for RAG.

Google AI Integration with Haystack

Google AI Integration with Haystack

AI and LLMs like ChatGPT can be quite expensive, even when you are paying a small amount per token it can still add up to big dollars very quickly. Mindfire TECH is committed to providing cost efficient Artificial Intelligence solutions to our customers, and in today’s blog we’ll explore one of the ways to get into AI without breaking the bank. The solution: Google Gemini.
