Features & Behind the Scenes

How can AI make reading more enjoyable? What would an AI-powered reading experience look like? Inspired by a discussion between Andrej Karpathy and Patrick Collison, I built a simple prototype to explore some ideas. (Try it at AiReadingClub.com!) In this write-up, I’ll walk through key features, design considerations, and how it was built. Exactly, roughly what I tried and mostly failed. I want to highlight some text in the pdf, pull out the highlight, the preceding text of the chapter, maybe the generated summaries of the other chapters, put it all together, attach nearby images if any… there’s a whole

Introducing Impressions at Netflix | by Netflix Technology Blog | Feb, 2025

Part 1: Creating the Source of Truth for Impressions By: Tulika Bhatt Imagine scrolling through Netflix, where each movie poster or promotional banner competes for your attention. Every image you hover over isn’t just a visual placeholder; it’s a critical data point that fuels our sophisticated personalization engine. At Netflix, we call these images ‘impressions,’ and they play a pivotal role in transforming your interaction from simple browsing into an immersive binge-watching experience, all tailored to your unique tastes. Capturing these moments and turning them into a personalized journey is no simple feat. It requires a state-of-the-art system that can

Database ACID Properties: Atomic, Consistent, Isolated, Durable – BMC Software

Understanding the foundation of reliable and consistent database transactions I don’t think it’s an overstatement to say that data is pretty important. Data is especially important for modern organizations. In fact, The Economist went so far as to say that data surpassed oil as the world’s most valuable resource, which was back in 2017. One of the problems with data, though, is the massive amounts that need to be processed daily. There’s so much data being generated across the globe these days that we have to come up with a new term just to express how much data there is:

Ethical Considerations and Best Practices in LLM Development 

Bias is inherent to building a ML model. Bias exists on a spectrum. Our job is to tell the difference between the desirable bias and the one that needs correction. We can identify biases using benchmarks like StereoSet and BBQ, and minimize them with ongoing monitoring across versions and iterations. Adhering to data protection laws is not as complex if we focus less on the internal structure of the algorithms and more on the practical contexts of use. To keep data secure throughout the model’s lifecycle, implement these practices: data anonymization, secure model serving and privacy penetration tests. Transparency can
