Improved Alerting with Atlas Streaming Eval
Ruchir Jha, Brian Harrington, Yingwu Zhao TL;DR Streaming alert evaluation scales much better than the traditional approach of polling time-series databases. It allows us to overcome high dimensionality/cardinality limitations of the time-series database. It opens doors to support more exciting use-cases. Engineers want their alerting system to be realtime, reliable, and actionable. While actionability is subjective …
How ERP is breaking down silos and driving sustainable change

Improve multi-hop reasoning in LLMs by learning from rich human feedback
Recent large language models (LLMs) have enabled tremendous progress in natural language understanding. However, they are prone to generating confident but nonsensical explanations, which poses a significant obstacle to establishing trust with users. In this post, we show how to incorporate human feedback on the incorrect reasoning chains for multi-hop reasoning to improve performance on …
