Search engine backend specs are almost final & now open source (AquilaDB), we love to make more and more of it on the way. This is because we're still discovering a market-fit & final product shape - open source development need a finalized spec & consistency over time.

Just wait until cheap to write GPT3 articles learn SEO techniques inherently and bombard the internet suppressing human writers in the spam ocean. At https://aquila.network we’re always thinking of this scenario.

If you need a good search engine, pay for it. Business needs to make money, it’s that simple.

It's interesting to see that you have paid for Kagi. Do you regularly pay for any other services that are privacy-focused?

Anonymous payment is a good idea. Do you use any other service that supports anonymous payments?

New comment by iamjbn in "Transformer Memory as a Differentiable Search Index"

iamjbn — Wed, 16 Feb 2022 07:52:37 +0000

Thanks for sharing. I have been working on vector search engines (IR) for a while (Aquila Network). And I believe works such as this as well as the "differential neural computers" (couple of them from Deepmind) will be the next breakthrough in IR. I can't see the direct path yet. We're eagerly waiting to see somewhat a usable architecture yet. I believe current vector indexes will eventually get modified into hierarchical random access memories that stores compressed information in higher dimensions (static & replicated part of the distributed system). On top of this, an application specific information decoder (that's the dynamic part of the system, UX) will use the underlying information accordingly.

Agree, Mullvad provides really good VPN service. I faced almost zero downtimes / speed throttles. It establishes quick connection with server (maybe because it uses wireguard). Anyway, I'm a regular user and I think paying 5E worth it.
