Hey everyone! Thank you so much for watching the Weaviate Podcast! This is pretty novel episode featuring both Weaviate Co-Founders Bob van Luijt and Etienne Dilocker! This is also extremely novel because we are featuring a competitor vector database, HyperDB! John Dagdelen is the founder of HyperDB which is a hyper-fast local vector database for use with LLM Agents. Now accepting SAFEs at $135M cap.

More seriously, John has produced an incredible body of research - https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=TiCS5FEAAAAJ&hl=en&oi=ao. John's work on Scientific Literature Mining for Materials Science literature has played an enormous role in my personal education of this technology and what it is capable.
