Singh Aman - PeerSpot reviewer
Generative AI Engineer at Tata Consultancy
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

"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."
"I assess the value of Cohere's API support in my business operations as easy to integrate."
"Speed has helped me in my day-to-day work, and I really notice the difference because it responds very quickly to LLM requests."
"The best feature Cohere offers is the Reranking model."
"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."
"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."
"Cohere's Embed English v3.0 is a cloud-hosted model that took less time to embed the textual data and was more than 50 to 60% faster than other models, even somewhat faster than text-embedding-3 from OpenAI, helping to reduce development and embedding times."
"Cohere helped us with all three aspects: money is saved, time is saved, and we needed fewer resources to meet our end goals."
"PyTorch allows me to build my projects from scratch."
"I like that PyTorch actually follows the pythonic way, and I feel that it's quite easy. It's easy to find compared to others who require us to type a long paragraph of code."
"We use PyTorch libraries, which are working well. It's very easy."
"Its interface is the most valuable, and 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."
"The tool is very user-friendly."
"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."
"The framework of the solution is valuable."
"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."
 

Cons

"I have not observed any measurable benefits or return on investment with Cohere."
"The documentation and support could be improved, as there is limited documentation available on the web."
"Cohere can be improved by having more integrations beyond its current offerings with Amazon."
"One thing that Cohere can improve is related to some distances when I am trying similarity search."
"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."
"When performing similarity matching between text descriptions and the catalog descriptions created using Cohere, the matching could be improved."
"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."
"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."
"I do not have any complaints."
"The product has breakdowns when we change the versions a lot."
"On the production side of things, having more frameworks would be helpful."
"The product has certain shortcomings in the automation of machine learning."
"I've had issues with stability when I use a lot of data and try out different combinations of modeling techniques."
"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."
"The training of the models could be faster."
"PyTorch could make certain things more obvious. Even though it does make things like defining loss functions and calculating gradients in backward propagation clear, these concepts may confuse beginners. We find that it's kind of problematic. Despite having methods called on loss functions during backward passes, the oral documentation for beginners is quite complex."

Questions from the Community

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Cohere?
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was that it was all managed by AWS, and we had AWS credits, so I did not have to dive into that.
What needs improvement with Cohere?
Cohere can be improved by having more integrations beyond its current offerings with Amazon. Integrations with Databricks, Azure, and Google Cloud would be beneficial.
What is your primary use case for Cohere?
My main use case for Cohere is that it's a good embedding model. I have used it with Titan, but Cohere came out better. A specific example of how I've used Cohere for embeddings is when I was worki...
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for PyTorch?
I haven't gone for a paid plan yet. I've just been using the free trial or open-source version.
What needs improvement with PyTorch?
There are a few areas for improvement. The biggest one for me is version and dependency management, as I have to ensure my Torch, TorchAudio, and CUDA versions are all aligned. If one is off, thing...
What is your primary use case for PyTorch?
I have been using PyTorch for the last three years, mostly through my thesis work and model deployment projects. I use PyTorch for pretty much everything in my deep learning work, specifically to b...
