Gimme a Vector, Victor: Leveraging Vector Datatypes for Practical Generative AI Applications

Virtual Lunch and Learn with Jim Czuprynski !!

Session Abstract:

The Dallas Oracle Users Group (DOUG) invites you to an exclusive, in-depth seminar with Oracle ACE Director Jim Czuprynski on Jun 5th from Noon–1 PM CT. This session will show how Generative AI – when paired with Oracle 23ai’s new VECTOR datatype makes complex problems incredibly easier to solve.

Generative AI, when enabled through Oracle 23ai’s new VECTOR datatype, makes it simple to build APEX and analytic applications that leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) to solve complex business problems.
In this session Jim will demonstrate:
– The basics of VECTORs and how they’re useful for LLMs and RAG
– How to build an experimental environment for leveraging 23ai VECTORs
– How to leverage LLMs to generate meaningful sample data without manually scraping it from external sources
– What business use cases are likely to find LLMs and Generative AI useful (and those that won’t) Session Prerequisites:

To gain the most from this presentation, attendees should be familiar with basic Oracle Database and APEX concepts. An understanding of the underlying principles of Large Language Models (LLMs), vector databases, and the mathematics that underlie these concepts will insure quicker uptake of topics.

Let’s face it. LLMs are real ! RAG ( Retrieval Augmented Generation ) is gaining popularity. In this session Jim will demonstrate how to use vectors, LLMs and RAG with Oracle 23ai.
