For our third #lovedata25 workshop @pnadelofficial.bsky.social taught about building your own search engines with NLP. He demonstrates his streamlit app where you can load your own data and customize your search. It just so happens that the LC’s crowdsourced transcriptions are perfectly formatted.

Peter Nadel presents his streamlit application at the front of the room. The interface looks like a simple search engine. He is searching the Library of Congress Rosa Parks crowdsourced transcription dataset for the term “segregation.” There are 25 pages with 10 results per page. A result shows metadata from the spreadsheet including the transcription campaign, document title, link to the facsimile, and transcription text with search term in bold.

I have been saying for years that 98% of the computation in LLMs is wasted, it’s just that figuring out what matters was harder than writing checks

ColPali is landed at @hf.co transformers and I have just shipped a very lean fine-tuning tutorial in smol-vision 🤠💗 QLoRA fine-tuning with 4-bit with bsz of 4 can be done with 32 GB VRAM and is very fast! ✨ github.com/merveenoyan/...

screenshot of the top of the tutorial that says "Fine-tune ColPali for Multimodal RAG"

Got some open source LLMs running on the Tufts cluster, so you know I had to make a Latin finetune of Llama2-7b. Really impressive results for only 6-7 hours of training.
