#81 Dr. Majid Fekri on Building AI RAG Systems, Vector Databases and Information Theory
Description
Featured Guest: Dr. Majid Fekri, Co-Founder & CTO, Edge AI Innovations
📍Toronto, Canada
...
In this episode, Dr. Majid explores the intersection of edge AI and information theory. He shares his vision of running AI efficiently on small devices while preserving privacy and reducing energy consumption.
Dr. Majid explains how his company developed a unique approach to retrieval augmented generation (RAG) for edge devices by redefining what "relevance" means through information theory. Their solution uses Shannon's theory of information as the foundation to compress vector signals into binary format, making operations extremely fast and efficient while maintaining accuracy.
Dr. Majid also discusses the challenges of deploying AI systems we don't fully understand, the mystery of vector spaces in neural networks, and how their approach provides more mathematical control over AI behavior.
