Summary

The PostgreSQL developer community has shown strong interest in using the database for artificial intelligence (AI) workloads, with many developers embracing AI's potential and concerns around its implementation. The 2024 State of PostgreSQL survey highlights PostgreSQL's versatility and robustness as a database for AI applications, particularly those utilizing large language models. Many developers are adopting an "easy mode" open-source AI stack, and Timescale is developing AI-focused extensions to PostgreSQL, such as pgai Vectorizer and pgvectorscale, to meet the growing demand for scalable and developer-friendly solutions.
