Summary

Last week's updates from LlamaIndex highlighted significant advancements in AI, particularly with the integration of GPT-4o and Gemini models. Key developments include the launch of LlamaIndex on Vertex AI, featuring a new RAG API that facilitates flexible data source connections and supports the latest LLMs. This period also saw the introduction of GPT-4o in LlamaParse for superior document parsing, albeit at a higher cost. Additionally, a new cookbook was released for structured image extraction using GPT-4o, promising high-quality results. The updates also encompassed guides and tutorials on enhancing QA with LlamaParse, speeding up vector searches using Jina Embeddings, and setting up local research assistants. The community is invited to join a webinar on long-term memory for autonomous agents and to attend a meetup in San Francisco to discuss the latest in generative AI.
