How is this different from a local Jupyter notebook? Can we not do this with ! or % in a .ipynb?

Genuine question. Not familiar with this company or the CLI product.

This is the non-AI version of an AI CEO saying programmers will not exist in 5 years.

yeah converse api supports all models on bedrock, or atleast all the text2text ones

If the user asks such a question, your agent should not invoke the RAG at all, but simply answer from the history. You need to focus on your orchestration step.

Search for ReAct agents, can build using either LangGraph or Bedrock Agents.

Skeptical that this will be a "good" experience for everyone involved considering how generic AI openers/responses are, but also hopeful that it can reduce friction for some.

Excited to see what y'all cook up.

Not an expert by any means but streaming HQ video is pretty expensive (even more so for live content), seems like the only providers that can do so profitably are YouTube and Netflix. I'm sure a big reason for that is the engineering (esp. CDN)

Hmm interesting, didn't realize that data sovereignty requirements were so stringent. Wonder how other cloud providers are doing in this sense considering GPU shortages across the board.

Can you not use cross-region inference?

I'm confused, what's expensive about it? It's a serverless pay per token model?

Do you mean specifically the Bedrock Knowledgebase/RAG -- that uses serverless OpenSearch which costs at minimum $200ish/month bc it doesn't scale to zero?

Also shouting out Continue.dev for vscode users. I set it up yesterday, open-source version of Cursor. (not affiliated, I tried to setup Avante but I'm a neovim noob and have skill issues)

Just set it up 2 days ago. I fully agree with his take. Cursor does a lot to reduce the headache of copy pasting results from ChatGPT/Claude.

Makes coding with AI much faster and less of a chore. You still need to know what you're doing as the models are fantastic at boilerplate but often get things wrong. But it's significantly sped up iteration for me, and hence translates to more fun.
