this is pretty insane 

the tek is so gud now that data paradigms are being inverted 

you would never think storing something as video would be *more* efficient

this project stores millions of text chunks inside a video file (mp4)

then runs sub-second semantic search on it
- no vector DB, no servers
- uses 10x less RAM  &amp; storage
- no internet required

it's called Memvid and it just broke my brain https://t.co/Ic3eRCfynp

Color me skeptical but this feels like a lot of unnecessary additional overhead compared to just using a vector database.

it’s prob not the right choice for almost any use case yet but it’s cool that it can be credibly considered
