Engineer at Roche
Have improved project workflows using faster response times and reduced data embedding costs
One thing that Cohere can improve is related to some distances when I am trying similarity search. Let's suppose I have provided textual data that has been embedded. I have to use some extra process from numpy after embedding the model. In the case of OpenAI embedding models, I do not have to use that extra process, and they provide lower distances compared to my results from Cohere. I was getting distances of approximately 0.005 sometimes, but in the case of Cohere, I was getting distances around 0.5 or sometimes more than that. I think that can be improved. It was possibly because of some configuration or the way I was using it, but I am not exactly sure about that.

Enabled creation of innovative projects through developer-friendly features
The aspect I like most about PyTorch is that it is really developer-friendly. Developers can constantly create new things, and everyone around the world can use it for free because it's an open-source product. What I personally like is that PyTorch has enabled users to use Apple's M1 chip natively for GPU users. Unlike other libraries using CUDA, PyTorch utilizes Metal Performance Shaders (MPS) to enable GPU usage on M1 chips.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The very first thing that I really like about it is the support team, because they're really available on Discord and they answer all of your questions."
"Cohere has helped my organization innovate and stay ahead in our industry as Cohere was better than Titan, and it helped us to secure the client's confidence and we moved from proof of concept to production."
"The very first thing that I really like about it is the support team. They're really available on Discord, and they answer all of your questions."
"When it creates a new test, it creates it almost 70 to 80% correctly without errors; the time savings are significant—what previously took one or two days can now be completed in two to three hours maximum."
"The best feature Cohere offers is the Reranking model."
"Speed has helped me in my day-to-day work, and I really notice the difference because it responds very quickly to LLM requests."
"Cohere has positively impacted my organization by helping our customers work more efficiently when creating requests, and the embedding results are of very high quality."
"Cohere helped us with all three aspects: money is saved, time is saved, and we needed fewer resources to meet our end goals."
"Its interface is the most valuable. The ability to have an interface to train machine learning models and construct them with the high-level interface, without excess busting and reconstructing the same technical elements, is very useful."
"PyTorch allows me to build my projects from scratch."
"I like PyTorch's scalability."
"It’s reliable, secure and user-friendly. It allows you to develop any AIML project efficiently. PySearch is the best option for developing any project in the AIML domain. The product is easy to install."
"We are a data science team that trains mathematical models with this solution, which can spin up VMs that you can use remotely or on your local machines."
"PyTorch is developer-friendly, allowing developers to continuously create new projects."
"We use PyTorch libraries, which are working well. It's very easy."
"yTorch is gaining credibility in the research space, it's becoming easier to find examples of papers that use PyTorch. This is an advantage for someone who uses PyTorch primarily."
 

Cons

"Cohere can be improved by having more integrations beyond its current offerings with Amazon."
"Cohere could improve in areas where the command model is not as creative as some larger LLMs available in the market, which is expected but noticeable in open-ended generative tasks."
"The documentation and support could be improved, as there is limited documentation available on the web."
"I believe Cohere can be improved technically by providing more feedback, logs, and metrics for embedding requests, as it currently appears to be a black box without any understanding of quality."
"It's challenging for us to make a conclusion about quality enhancement by using reranking models, as solid evaluation methodology for reranking is still immature."
"Cohere has text generation. I think it is mainly focused on AI search. If there was a way to combine the searches with images, I think it would be nice to include that."
"One thing that Cohere can improve is related to some distances when I am trying similarity search."
"When performing similarity matching between text descriptions and the catalog descriptions created using Cohere, the matching could be improved."
"The training of the models could be faster."
"The product has certain shortcomings in the automation of machine learning."
"There is not enough documentation about some methods and parameters. It is sometimes difficult to find information."
"PyTorch needs improvement in working on ARM-based chips. They have unified memory for GPU and RAM, however, current GPUs used for processing are slow."
"I would like a model to be available. I think Google recently released a new version of EfficientNet. It's a really good classifier, and a PyTorch implementation would be nice."
"I've had issues with stability when I use a lot of data and try out different combinations of modeling techniques."
"There is not enough documentation about some methods and parameters. It is sometimes difficult to find information."
"The product has breakdowns when we change the versions a lot."
