My first memorable project joining IBM Watson out of college was pitching a product idea to the then-CEO of the division. I created a new shell app in IBM Bluemix (now IBM Cloud) and overwhelmed by where to start coding as I was unfamiliar with the directory layout and which files to edit. If former me had access to GitHub Workspace, the narrative would be fundamentally different. From the announcement: “As programming in natural language lowers the barrier of entry to who can build software, we are accelerating to a near future where one billion people on GitHub will control a machine just as easily as they ride a bicycle.” Let’s pilot the future and democratize coding up PoCs. I don’t believe this will replace developers, rather, shorten time for iteration and lower start up cost! I’m truly excited! #GitHub #GitHubWorkspace #GenerativeAI #GenAI #AI #ArtificialIntelligence

VoiceRAG: retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) apps with a real-time voice interface. The new GPT-4o realtime API for audio is now available in Azure OpenAI. This model allows developers to build applications with user interfaces like ChatGPT’s advanced voice mode, where users have a real-time, full-duplex audio channel with the model. If the model uses audio for input and output, how do you integrate a retrieval system to ground responses, along the lines of what typical RAG applications do? In this short write up we present a simple pattern for this we called VoiceRAG. The blog post includes a pointer to a repo with a sample implementation of the VoiceRAG pattern you can clone and try with our data or your own. https://aka.ms/voicerag

The Site Reliability Engineering: How Google Runs Production System book is arguably one of the most prevalent and well-known SRE resources out there, but there are many other great options for folks looking to expand on their learning. We recently spoke to Google's Reliability Advocate, Steve McGhee, in our Humans of Reliability interview series. In addition to his interesting anecdotes on the early days of SRE at Google, and his journey to becoming a Reliability Advocate, he also shared a handful of his favorite SRE resources, which we compiled here into a list: https://lnkd.in/gpUVhyRa

Week 1 reflections at Oracle: the early bird may get the worm, but the one that swoops in at the right moment gets the fish. No doubt, Speed matters in business, a mantra Amazon imbues in their people. But my first week at Oracle has started to bring a new perspective - while speed matters, it is not everything. Timing is. Not being the first is actually pretty neat in its own right. It brings valuable perspective and flexibility in approaching the market. For instance, Amazon was the first to market in many businesses including the Cloud, built to navigate growing pains, with the obsession to get the customer strategy right. Guess what? When players like Oracle later came about, they had ready case studies about aspects of the Cloud that worked, and more importantly, ones that didn't. So Oracle (OCI - Oracle Cloud Infrastructure) took a more surgical approach, differentiating their cloud offering from the market leader with cloud offerings like enterprise-grade autonomous databases and on-premise integration. And just like that, it lowered the adoption barrier for its customers. Now more than ever, the media and entertainment industry is finding their cloud investments with other providers simply aren't meeting current demands of cost and scale. And Oracle is bringing its playbook. The Studio in the Cloud organization is innovating in content production and streaming workflows, taking a SaaS approach to thoughtfully offer cloud solutions to accelerate their workflows while achieving cost savings. OCI is working backwards from the studio customer, designing delightful production and streaming experiences. More to come in this space. Excited, We are hiring! drop one of us a note!
