In this special episode of the Rankable Podcast, Neeva Co-Founder & CEO, Sridhar Ramaswamy sits down with iPullRank’s Mike King to explain the inner workings of a search engine fueled by AI technology.
Sridhar shares his thoughts on the future of the traditional search engine in the context of Large Language Models. Did he sign the recent petition from the Future of Life Institute (signed by Elon Musk and Steve Wozniak) to halt AI development? Or did he think the entire premise of halting AI is ridiculous?
Sridhar also gets technical with Mike as they discuss Neeva’s Retrieval Augmented Generation and other AI powered techniques to enhance search and why it may be difficult for others to replicate.
