alt Hacker NewsThe topic is basically irrelevant. I could just edit my post to change the two instances of "vector database" to "vector database integration" and nothing else would change about my point.
I could change the post to be about learning word-working by watching a robot build a shelf and nothing would change.
I genuinely do think you can learn 90% of what that is to learn about integrating with a vector database from having an LLM do the work for you and then carefully reviewing what it did.
Turns out there's science that backs me up here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worked-example_effect - showing people "worked examples" can be more effective than making them solve the problem themselves.
That Wikipedia article is a little weak, this MIT page is better: https://tll.mit.edu/teaching-resources/how-people-learn/work...
