LLM-Based Models for Unstructured Data (in private preview):
• Answer Extraction: Extract key information from unstructured datasets.
• Sentiment Detection: Identify the sentiment in textual data.
• Text Summarization: Create concise summaries of lengthy documents for quicker insights.
• Translation: Perform large-scale text translation efficiently.
ML-Based Models (available soon):
• Forecasting: Automatically forecast time series based on historical data, adjusting for seasonality and scaling.
• Anomaly Detection: Detect outliers in time series data, useful for monitoring data pipelines.
• Contribution Explorer: Identify key factors contributing to changes in metrics between two time intervals.
• Classification: Categorize data into predefined classes to offer recommendations based on trends.
General Purpose Models for Broader Use Cases:
• Complete: Generate text completions using state-of-the-art open-source LLMs like Llama 2.
• Text2SQL: Convert natural language queries into SQL, powered by Snowflake’s LLM, similar to the Snowflake Copilot feature.
These serverless functions offer out-of-the-box capabilities that can be integrated into analytics workflows and app development in Snowflake. For example, with just a few lines of code, developers can embed these functions into chatbots using Streamlit. This allows Python-savvy users to build secure and powerful LLM applications quickly, often within hours.
Document AI
Document AI (currently in private preview) leverages large language models (LLMs) for seamless data extraction. By utilizing a pre-trained model and a user-friendly interface, customers can process various document types—such as PDFs, Word files, text files, and even screenshots—to quickly obtain answers to their queries. This capability can be scaled to build pipelines that automate data extraction, significantly reducing manual effort and saving time.
