Practical trade-offs and sliders for RAG

Lorenzo Moriondo is a Technical Lead for AI at tuned.org.uk, working on AI agent protocols, graph-based search, and production-grade LLM systems.arrowspace: Vector Spaces and Graph Wiring // MLOps Podcast #365 with Lorenzo Moriondo, AI Research and Product EngineerJoin the Community: https://go.mlops.community/YTJoinInGet the newsletter: https://go.mlops.community/YTNewsletterMLOps GPU Guide: https://go.mlops.community/gpuguide// Abstract Meet arrowspace — an open-source library for curating and understanding LLM datasets across the entire lifecycle, from pre-training to inference.Instead of treating embeddings as static vectors, arrowspace turns them into graphs (“graph wiring”) so you can explore structure, not just similarity. That unlocks smarter RAG search (beyond basic semantic matching), dataset fingerprinting, and deeper insights into how different datasets behave.You can compare datasets, predict how changes will affect performance, detect drift early, and even safely mix data sources while measuring outcomes.In short: arrowspace helps you see your data — and make better decisions because of it.// BioWith over a decade of experience in software and data engineering across startups and early-stage projects, Lorenzo has recently turned his focus to the AI-assisted movement to automate software and data operations. He has contributed to and founded projects within various open-source communities, including work with Summer of Code, where he focused on the Semantic Web and REST APIs.A strong enthusiast of Python and Rust, he develops tools centered around LLMs and agentic systems. He is a maintainer of the SmartCore ML library, as well as the creator of Arrowspace and the Topological Transformer.// Related LinksWebsite: https://www.tuned.org.uk~~~~~~~~ ✌️Connect With Us ✌️ ~~~~~~~Catch all episodes, blogs, newsletters, and more: https://go.mlops.community/TYExploreJoin our Slack community [https://go.mlops.community/slack]Follow us on X/Twitter [@mlopscommunity](https://x.com/mlopscommunity) or [LinkedIn](https://go.mlops.community/linkedin)] Sign up for the next meetup: [https://go.mlops.community/register]MLOps Swag/Merch: [https://shop.mlops.community/]Connect with Demetrios on LinkedIn: /dpbrinkmConnect with Chris on LinkedIn: /lorenzomoriondo
