(…) So in terms of the efficiencies, the personnel employed in order to respond to maintenance requirements, the efficiency was in the range of 5% to 10%. And then in terms of opex spending, and by opex I mean replacement of parts, and the downtime associated with the loss of revenue, that was in the range of 20% to 30%.

(…) In terms of the evaluation we did at the time, the context windows were similar, but now Anthropic’s model, the new one, Claude 2, has a much larger context window, 100,000 tokens compared to the OpenAI model, which is 32,000 I believe is the largest that’s available. So Anthropic is about 3x better on that criteria.

(…) The strengths are clearly the flexibility of the programming languages used in Snowflake… One disadvantage may be that Snowflake relies on existing cloud technology from Google and Amazon.

(…) We also looked at the Oracle product offerings, Google Cloud and Amazon’s Redshift. The other vendors were very powerful, and we found that they were easier to learn in some regards. However, Databricks is very powerful in terms of its breadth and depth of capabilities…

(…) As for alternatives, I would say the biggest disadvantages of why we didn’t select them is the limited amount of integration, library and capabilities in the algorithm suite that they have. They’re not as robust of what C3.ai has and they have a lot of proprietary ones that we don’t have access to that the other ones didn’t either in terms of there’s algorithms

(…) The key strengths of Tempus are granularity of data, availability of genome sequencing information, high quality clinical data, and availability of advanced analytics…Weaknesses are numbers of patients in the database and the types of diseases in the database that can be further expanded.

(…) We actually paid per call, API call. It was metered, and I think it was free up to 1,000 API calls or something like that. And then it was like $0.06 per call after that…

(…) We received closer and better support from Advanced Micro Devices’s local team in Australia, which was another factor that pushed us towards Advanced Micro Devices over Intel.
