While the internet existed long before web search came along, its emergence and subsequent advancements have dictated the internet’s popularity and pace of innovation. Search is integral to today’s digital world, and Elasticsearch B.V. is expanding its frontiers for the enterprise with AI-powered search.
“One of the things that we’ve seen is that search has evolved from lexical search or text-based search into semantic search, which is customers wanting to do natural language question and answering to conversational search,” said Ken Exner (pictured), chief product officer of Elasticsearch. “[They’re] moving towards generative AI applications that use search in order to ground LLMs and use the power of LLMs to build search-powered applications.”
Exner spoke with theCUBE Research’s Dave Vellante for theCUBE’s “Cloud AWS re:Invent Coverage,” during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. They discussed AI-powered search, expanding on its potential to eliminate existing bottlenecks and revolutionize the internet. (* Disclosure below.)
