Guest Quotes
&ldquo;We're almost part of a fancy new AI robot kitchen that you'd find in Tokyo, in some ways. I see a virtual feature store as, yes, you can have a bunch of your ingredients tossed into a closet. Or, what you can do is you can essentially have a nice way to organize them. You can have a way to label them, to capture information.&rdquo; &ndash; Mikiko Bazeley
&ldquo;So where I see vector search engines, really, is if we think of these embedding providers as the translators to take all of our unstructured data and bring it into vector space into a common machine language, vector search engines are essentially the workhorses that allow us to compute and search over these objects in vectorized format. They're essentially the calculators of the AI stack.&rdquo; &ndash; Zain Hasan
&ldquo;Haystack, I would really position as the kitchen. I need Mikiko to bring the apples. I need Zain to bring the pears. I need Hugging Face or OpenAI to bring the oranges to make a good fruit salad. But, Haystack will provide the spoons and the pans and the knives to make that into something that works together.&rdquo; &ndash; Tuana Celik
