Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases is a fully managed capability that helps implement entire Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) workflows from ingestion to retrieval and prompt augmentation without having to build custom integrations to data sources and manage data flows. There is no single way to optimize knowledge base performance: each use case is impacted differently by configuration parameters. As such, it’s important to test often and iterate quickly to identify the best configuration for each use case. In this post, we discuss how to evaluate the performance of your knowledge base, including the metrics and data to use for evaluation. We…

Stability AI speaks of a “multi-view video generation with 3D camera control”. This refers to an AI model that can convert photos into 3D models. These in turn can be viewed from all sides, enabling an immersive view. Stable Virtual Camera is still a research preview. Stability AI uses a diffusion model to create the 3D videos. These are AI models in which images are generated point by point using noise. A single photo or up to 32 images can be used as input. The generated videos are available with different camera paths, such as “dynamic”, “spiral”, “dolly zoom”, “pan”…
