When directly compared with OpenAI's 8K model text-embedding-ada-002, the jina-embeddings-v2 stand out in terms of quality. Their long context length is a game changer. Don't let a missing model implementation stop you from realizing your awesome AI project in Elixir. Instead, follow three steps to convert a Python model to Elixir.

In Elixir, once you have clustering set up, it's ridiculously easy to run some code on another node in your cluster: Node.spawn(:"another_beam_instance@10.0.1.2", fn - # This runs on a different node send(self(), node()) end) receive do response - IO.puts "Got response:

I love parsing! I really do. There's something very satisfying about converting input into usable data structures that help me accomplish some task. Parsing is important. How well we construct those data structures and the quality of the structures we choose can massively impact the work that comes after. We should probably all be worrying about parsing a little more than we do. The good news is that Elixir is the best language I have ever worked with for doing serious parsing. Let's prove it. Let's pull the data out of a SQLite database file using vanilla Elixir and some tricks from my Scrappy Programmer Livebook series. (You don't need to have read that to follow along with this article. Everyone is welcome.)

In a Phoenix/LiveView application, it's a bit of a challenge to display the current time to the user in the user's time zone but this can be solved with a time zone library and a little JavaScript.

This two-part series explores working with Phoenix in a distributed setup. In part one, we'll look at GenServers.

I’m trying to get an QR code from the google API. url = "https://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chs=150x150&cht=qr&chl=Hello%20world" response = HTTPoison.get!(url) How do I send the body of the response as json out in my Phoenix application?

Hi folks! We’ve just finished (me and @smita) our new QRCode library for Elixir. Now you can generate QR code whenever you’ll want… 🎉 Basic usage looks like: iex qr = QRCode.create("Hello World") iex qr | Result.and_then(&QRCode.Svg.save_as(&1,"/path/to/hello.svg")) {:ok, "/path/to/hello.svg"} If you want to change, for example, ecc level and the color of QR code you can write iex settings = %QRCode.SvgSettings{qrcode_color: {17, 170, 136}} iex qr = QRCode.create("quiz_string", :h...
