🚀 Want to supercharge how your systems understand and search your data? Check out this excellent tutorial: Fast-Track Knowledge Bases: How to Build Semantic AI Search by Andriy Burkov. In it, you’ll learn: 🔹 Why traditional keyword-based search often fails to surface what users mean vs what they type 🔹 How to convert your data into vector embeddings so semantic similarity is captured 🔹 How to combine semantic search with structured metadata filters (hybrid search) 🔹 How to build a full Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline grounded in your own data for contextually accurate responses 👉 Whether you’re building smarter search tools, chatbots over internal docs, or domain-specific QA systems — this is a practical, hands-on guide. Would love to hear: what use case would you like to apply semantic search to? 🔗 Read the full blog here: https://lnkd.in/dDVdvi5G

💡 “Most enterprises aren’t short on data, they’re short on connection.” That’s the conversation right now inside Erik Bovee’s boardroom at CxO Institute San Francisco, where the VP of Business Development at MindsDB is helping leaders break free from integration paralysis. Rather than ripping out legacy systems or building endless ETL pipelines, Erik’s message is refreshingly pragmatic: AI can serve as the universal connector, creating a smart layer between your systems that delivers real-time analytics and insight without moving your data. In the room, data and IT leaders are learning how to: ⁃ Turn messy, siloed data into a living knowledge graph ⁃ Build AI-ready frameworks that scale without re-architecture ⁃ Bridge business and tech teams through shared visibility and data literacy The takeaway? You don’t need to overhaul your stack to unlock value. You just need to make your data, and your teams - speak the same language. #CxOInstitute #MindsDB #EnterpriseAI #DataStrategy #CxOCommunity #DigitalTransformation #AIMaturity #InnovationInAction #CxOSanFrancisco

🚀 The future of AI is data-native and grounded. For years, enterprises have been moving data into models—duplicating, transforming, and paying the ETL tax. But in today’s world of compliance, scale, and real-time decision-making, this approach no longer makes sense. With MindsDB, AI comes to your data—where it lives. That means: ✅ No costly ETL pipelines ✅ Real-time, grounded insights ✅ Secure and compliant by design 🔗 Read the full blog: https://lnkd.in/dB6UjyjM

I just built a movie recommendation Agent! (100% open-source, built on 300k+ movies) By building this movie recommendation system, I'll show you how to combine the powers of SQL and vector search. Traditional databases don't understand natural language. Vector databases can't filter with precision. MindsDB's Knowledge Base Algebra solves this problem, and it's 100% open-source. Here's why I chose it: You can connect it to 200+ data sources (structured and unstructured) and build a unified knowledge base that combines semantic search, metadata filtering, and complex boolean logic (SQL) into one system. Users just write natural language queries. That's it. I built a movie recommendation agent with 300k+ movies to show you what this looks like in action. Some records are clean (genre, rating, year), but most are messy (plot summaries, reviews, scattered text). With traditional tools, you have two bad options: 1. Write rigid SQL filters and miss the nuance 2. Use an LLM that guesses its way through With MindsDB, you ask in natural language. The system automatically identifies the semantic search components, applies metadata filters, and executes the boolean logic to give you exactly what you need. The best part? This runs locally on your machine. I recorded a step-by-step video showing how to build this system from scratch. Check it out below. To get started, I've shared a link to MindsDB's GitHub repo in the first comment! _____ Share this with your network if you found this insightful ♻️ Follow me (Akshay Pachaar) for more insights and tutorials on AI and Machine Learning!

Ever wondered how much overhead ETL is really costing your business? It’s no longer just a data challenge—it’s a business cost. 💰 ETL pipelines have become a silent drain on resources. It has been the backbone of data infrastructure for decades, but the truth is—they come with real costs: ⚠️ Infrastructure overhead ⚠️ Slow, complex data movement ⚠️ Security and compliance risks ⚠️ Rising operational expenses In today’s world, these inefficiencies hold businesses back. That’s why more organizations are moving toward AI-native, zero-ETL solutions. With MindsDB, you can: ✅ Query data in place — no duplication or transfer ✅ Use SQL + AI to unify structured and unstructured sources ✅ Get accurate, explainable insights in real time ✅ Cut costs while improving compliance and agility This isn’t just about simplifying architecture—it’s about freeing businesses from the ETL tax and unlocking a faster path to decision intelligence. 📖 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/dSc5qtGs
