Episode Details

Happy first ThursdAI of April folks, did you have fun on April Fools? 👀 I hope you did, I made a poll on my feed and 70% did not participate in April Fools, which makes me a bit sad!

Well all-right, time to dive into the news of this week, and of course there are TONS of news, but I want to start with our own breaking news! That's right, we at Weights & Biases have breaking new of our own today, we've launched our new product today called Weave!

Weave is our new toolkit to track, version and evaluate LLM apps, so from now on, we have Models (what you probably know as Weights & Biases) and Weave. So if you're writing any kind RAG system, anything that uses Claude or OpenAI, Weave is for you!

I'll be focusing on Weave and I'll be sharing more on the topic, but today I encourage you to listen to the launch conversation I had with Tim & Scott from the Weave team here at WandB, as they and the rest of the team worked their ass off for this release and we want to celebrate the launch 🎉
