> AI is a bubble

why does it even matter? I know that I need multimodal search in my product, and that is why I need vector DB. You're not saying anything interesting by saying "AI is a bubble". If you say something like I may not actually need RAG/mutimodal/semantic search/dedicated vector db then you may have my attention.

Where does the funding for the companies developing those databases come from?

I do not know enough about vector search to assert pgvector is enough for you, but I do know enough about supply chains to get woozy

so like if the funding for AI disappears then somehow my requirement of multimodal search also disappears, and with it all the existing solutions, some NOT VC funded, like pgvector?
