Latest Developments

ChatGPT for Database: Drag, Drop, Generate and Query 📊

Supabase has released postgres.new, an in-browser Postgres sandbox enhanced with AI that lets you create an unlimited number of Postgres databases that run right in your browser. You can also deploy them to S3 (Simple Storage Service, a cloud object storage service offered by AWS), a feature coming soon.

What sets postgres.new apart is its integration with OpenAI’s GPT-4o. This AI assistant can understand your requests in natural language and execute corresponding actions on your database, like generating SQL queries and visual reports.

Key Highlights:

1. Effortless CSV import - Simply drag and drop a CSV file into the interface. The AI assistant analyzes the data, creates a suitable table structure, and imports the data automatically.

2. Instant SQL assistance - Get help with writing SQL queries. The AI can even identify and correct errors in your queries, ensuring your code runs smoothly.

3. Rapid prototyping with ER diagrams - Describe your desired database schema, and the AI will generate a visual ER diagram and SQL migration scripts. This accelerates the design process and ensures a robust database structure from the start.

4. Vector search integration - postgres.new comes with built-in pgvector support, a Postgres extension that allows you to store and query vector embeddings. With pgvector and AI, you can experiment with semantic search and RAG directly in your browser.

5. Get started - Just visit postgres.new. It's completely free and runs entirely within your browser, requiring no downloads or installations. It’s also completely opensource.

Small Models Outperform CodeLlama and DeepSeek Coder 🥇

01.AI has opensourced its small yet mighty Yi-Coder models designed for state-of-the-art coding performance. The models are available in 1.5B and 9B parameter sizes with base and chat variants. The models excel in code generation, debugging, translation, and completion. Yi-Coder-9B builds upon the Yi-9B foundation with an additional 2.4 trillion tokens of high-quality code data from GitHub and CommonCrawl for robust code comprehension and generation capabilities.

Key Highlights:

1. Multilingual - Yi-Coder models are trained on a massive 2.4 trillion high-quality tokens, covering 52 major programming languages.

2. 128K context window - Navigate and process code at the project level with Yi-Coder's extended context window. This helps in understanding and generating code within larger codebases.

3. Outperforms larger models - Benchmark results show both the models outperforming their larger counterparts including CodeLLama and DeepSeek Coder across various tasks and benchmarks. They also achieve impressive win rates on LiveCodeBench, CodeEditorBench, and Aider Leaderboards, demonstrating true proficiency in real-world code tasks.

4. Availability - The models are available to download on Hugging Face. You can also use Yi-Coder with Transformers, Ollama, vLLM, and other frameworks. Check out Yi-Coder repo for detailed instructions.

Quick Bites

Microsoft has launched the next wave of Microsoft 365 Copilot, introducing new features like Copilot Pages, Python + Copilot in Excel, and Copilot agents. It brings together web + work + Pages for business process automation.

• Copilot Pages - A dynamic, persistent canvas designed that gets updated as you keep working with the Copilot. It can be shared with multiple team members for real-time collaboration.

• Python in Excel - Python with Copilot in MS Excel lets you perform advanced data analysis and visualization using natural language, without any coding.

• Copilot Agents - Automate routine work with AI agents, managed and orchestrated by Copilot. These AI agents are simple to create and can be given your company’s knowledge resources for context.

Runway and Luma Labs both launched their APIs today. Runway’s API offers access to their Gen-3 Alpha Turbo models at $0.01 per credit, for video generation from images, while Luma’s Dream Machine API introduces intuitive video editing tools starting at $0.0032 per frame for HD videos.

Scale AI and the Centre for AI Safety have started an initiative called “Humanity’s Last Exam” where they’re inviting contributions to create the most challenging AI benchmark. You need to submit the most difficult questions that you believe will be very impressive if an AI solves it. If your questions are accepted, you’ll be offered co-authorship in the resulting paper and a share from a $500,000 prize pool.

OpenAI felt generous today! For ChatGPT Plus and Team users, OpenAI has increased the rate limits
- For o1-mini: from 50 messages per week to 50 messages per day
- from 30 messages per week to 50 messages per week

For tier 5 developers, the API rate limits have been increased to
- 100 requests per minute for o1-preview
- 250 requests per minute for o1-mini

Tools of the Trade

1. Void: An open-source alternative to the Cursor AI code while allowing you to host AI models locally, ensuring your data stays private. It offers file system awareness, editable prompts, and fast editing across large codebases, fully compatible with VS Code for seamless integration and customization.

2. Firebender: A minimal coding assistant for Android Studio. Hit Cmd + L or Ctrl + L and Firebender will open with context over your codebase. Never leave the IDE to copy code snippets to ChatGPT or Claude again.

3. Ell: A lightweight programming library for prompt engineering, allowing you to treat prompts as structured programs rather than mere strings, and includes tools for automatic versioning, monitoring, and visualization locally.

4. Awesome LLM Apps: Build awesome LLM apps using RAG to interact with data sources like GitHub, Gmail, PDFs, and YouTube videos through simple text. These apps will let you retrieve information, engage in chat, and extract insights directly from content on these platforms.

Hot Takes

1. GPT-4o is bad at coding, but fast. GPT-o1 is still bad at coding, but you have to wait an eternity for it. ~
