[new Youtube video] Writing Redis VRANGE using AI: how I prepare the context, and how the human in the loop is crucial to obtain good results: youtube.com/watch?v=3Z7T0D…

In order to implement the Redis Vector Sets VRANGE, I used AI to show better my point about the latest blog post and why vibe coding is *not* the way. Soon I'll release a video in my YouTube channel (in English) to see how Claude and Gemini perform and how the human is the key.

"Always be part of the loop by moving code by hand from your terminal to the LLM web interface: this guarantees that you follow every process. You are still the coder, but augmented." -- @antirez antirez.com/news/154

Amazing blog and very educational. I wrote one in the similar vein this week. vinitkumar.me/ai-agents/

Just published a new video about Vector Sets: how is VRANDMEMBER implemented? What is its distribution? And how do you extract a random element out of an HNSW graph? youtube.com/watch?v=XregAs…

Caro @sole24ore c'è un grave errore nel vostro strumento di conversione euro/dollaro online. Molti commercialisti si affidano a esso, e in questo momento stanno sbagliando a emettere non so quante fatture. L'attuale cambio è dello 0.86 non 0.80.

For my YouTube C course weeks ago I created an intro with some music. People liked it and asked what song it was so yesterday night I turned it into a full song: youtu.be/HzBqda0Jg3E?si…

I just want to tell everybody that I don't care what price BTC will reach. For me it's a 🤡 level speculation and I will never invest into it.

Do you like Daft Punk? I do. Many years before, in 1979, a few Italian composers created what later inspired many later musicians: the Rondò Veneziano. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rond%C3%B… youtube.com/watch?v=Y4Frnr…

People attribute to Cursor / Windsurf (and its failed deal) a lot of weight but these technologies are worth zero in the big story of AI. The LLM is what matters, or better: the fact that massive NNs with relatively simple layouts generalize so well with SUL.

Quite happy with vector sets VRANDMEMBER distribution. HNSWs help a lot, with their structure.

Don't ask me why sometimes I need to reach such a point.

A repository with two of the very early Redis versions and some email digging to reconstruct the very first days history: github.com/antirez/histor…

Looking forward to watching this tomorrow. I've been playing with them recently and they work so well! Really natural fit for a lot of use cases where I think Redis has been overlooked.

If you are interested to use the new Redis Vector Sets, I just uploaded a YouTube video with the first introduction. More will follow, to progressive details up to the implementation level: youtube.com/watch?v=kVApsF…

Such a great news! A very warm welcome, Marc.
