Hi guys I am a practicing Data Scientist in one of the big threes. Unfortunately, the title does very little to describe the day-to-day, and I have been looking for ways to quit my job and start out on my own. Well, that's a story for another time. Currently, I am trying to develop a CSV-Reader that can use my data as embeddings and then use langchains to query an LLM for insights. The theory seems simple enough and there is a lot of material available so getting it built was not a big deal. But that's where my trouble started. 1) VSCode, I love it but I am so confused. Whenever I start conda doesn't work, I need to activate it every time, still a minor issue. The bigger problem is that whenever I make any changes in one of my custom modules VSCode behaves as if that never happens until I restart, please tell me if there is a setting that can solve this. 2) Now coming to the interesting part. The CSV-Reader I built sucks, it's so bad that I don't have proper words for it. I am beginning to think that examples on YouTube are cherry-picked. The good news is that I have yet to see it make things up, but it never gets any question right, not even as simple as: What are the values in the 1st index? I believe a better prompt might be the starting point, but that in itself cannot be the whole story, right? Where do I start, to get it from 0% accuracy to anything at this point? For context, I am using, Kaggle data set as input, a local llama2 7b as the LLM, sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2 from Huggingfce for embeddings and FAISS for vector store

This is my contribution here and I hope it will help someone. Most of us a totally newbie at least in "how to handle and manage" IDE and other stuff, so if you are like me, you hang on Dave's lips in his videos which is exactly their purpose. But unfortunately sometimes it can happen that for a triviality you stop, or worse still you go on without noticing a problem (certainly not Dave's fault, he can't predict every single case). I was proceeding with the CODEX course, when trying to recall the BLACK formatting from the terminal in VS CODE I get an error. Actually, I get the first error when starting the terminal itself, because it didn't load the CONDA environment correctly, even if the correct interpreter had been recognized and selected for the project.briefly, the environment variables were missing and thus the terminal couldn't execute the commands to start the correct environment. This happened because during the installation of Anaconda, not only was the creation of variables deselected by default, but it was also not recommended (even written in red). After a short and unsuccessful search for the correct variable, I settled on the good old reverse engineering approach: I made a user on test windows, installed anaconda with the addition of the environment variables and copied them (yes they were well more than one). I entered them in my main user, I restarted the pc and now it works correctly!Attached the list of variables. Now the call to BLACK works correctly, but the mystery remains because I can't find the first item to modify in the settings, to force the use of BLACK, it should be there by default with the installation of the Python extension I think (screenshot always attached)

The goal of this group is to help you navigate the complex and rapidly evolving world of data science and artificial intelligence. This is your hub to stay up-to-date on the latest trends, learn specialized skills to turn raw data into valuable insights, connect with a community of like-minded individuals, and ultimately, become a Data Alchemist. Together, let's decode the language of data and shape a future where knowledge and community illuminate our way.
