The Landscape of GenAI Ecosystem: Beyond LLMs and Vector Databases
Blog post from Zilliz
The landscape of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has significantly expanded beyond Large Language Models (LLMs) and vector databases, with a focus on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and multimedia generation. RAG combines information retrieval techniques with generative language models to produce relevant outputs, while multimedia generation leverages generative models for complex visual content creation. The GenAI ecosystem includes various components such as data connectors, embedding models, LLM inference frameworks, agentic frameworks, and frontend UI experiences. Key projects within the ecosystem include LlamaIndex, Ragas, Airbyte, Voyage AI, vLLM, MemGPT, Bing API, Streamlit, WhyHow, AnythingLLM, Midjourney, and Zilliz Cloud.
