Summary

Weaviate, a vector database, can now summarize information during retrieval through its new sum-transformers module. This feature helps reduce the amount of too long; did not read (TL;DR) content in one's life and assists in overcoming information overload. The sum-transformers module uses language models trained specifically for summarization, such as bart-large-cnn or pegasus-xsum. Users can also leverage the generative-openai module to generate summaries by prompting it directly.
