Not only that, but due to their pattern of putting letters after the version number the current version is Oracle AI Database "26ai".
replyI skimmed the video and the presenters said "Oracle AI Database 26ai" multiple times without even a glint of self awareness on their face. They must've picked the only people on the team that could say that without laughing.
That never happened to JavaScript. It still has Java in the name long after the Java hype ended. We never went back to calling it LiveScript.
replyWell, there was an attempt of sorts with EcmaScript.
replyWell no, ECMA Script exists, but it's not a language it's a standard that JavaScript runtimes implement. JavaScript today means ECMA Script version + runtime flavor.
replynot exactly what we're asking of database, don't you think ?
replyWe want to maintain the status quo in technology. We want databases to remain as they were five years ago. But for some reason, Oracle implemented AI into its database. Perhaps they surveyed their customers, and most of them supported this initiative. Perhaps they surveyed the wrong audience, and real database users do not want to see AI in them. Or maybe they made this decision to get more investment or because of the hype around AI.
replyBut the decision has been made. And if AI remains in databases after the AI hype, the next generation of developers will no longer know databases without AI. That's why I said it will become the norm. But that's just my guess. Unfortunately, I can't see the future. I don't know what it will actually be like in a few years.
Ironically, yeah kinda. In so far as fuzzy text search goes, vectorization works great.
replyThe generative part of the AI hype is getting in the way.
Needs for actual survival and functionality do not out weigh needs for product manager promotions anymore.
replyThe destructive forces (fire clearing deadwood) of the economy have been artificially suppressed for a long time. Most companies are zombie companies now. The US is an entire zombie economic zone.
replyThat's what happens when you have nearly a decade of ZIRP & QE.
