Automate Pinecone Day by day Upsert Activity with Celery and Slack monitoring
It’s been some time since my final LLM publish and I’m excited to share that my prototype has been efficiently productionized as Outdoors’s first LLM-powered chatbot, Scout. If you’re an Outdoors+ member, you possibly can test it out over at https://scout.outsideonline.com/.
