Writer RAG tool: build production-ready RAG apps in minutes

RAG in just a few lines of code? We’ve launched a predefined RAG tool on our developer platform, making it easy to bring your data into a Knowledge Graph and interact with it with AI. With a single API call, writer LLMs will intelligently call the RAG tool to chat with your data.

Integrated into Writer’s full-stack platform, it eliminates the need for complex vendor RAG setups, making it quick to build scalable, highly accurate AI workflows just by passing a graph ID of your data as a parameter to your RAG tool.

Incoming president Donald Trump is considering naming an “AI czar” in the White House, Axios reports.

Should Trump appoint such a policy person, they’d be charged with helping to coordinate federal regulation and governmental use of AI. Importantly, an AI czar wouldn’t require Senate confirmation, Axios notes — allowing them to get to work on the administration’s goals faster.

No names have been put forth for consideration. But Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, the co-leaders of the extra-governmental org known as DOGE, will have significant input into who gets the AI czar role, according to Axios.

Elon Musk’s Neuralink Corp. has announced it’s started testing a robotic arm that could be controlled using the mind. The early-stage study outlines a robotic arm that would be controlled using a Neuralink device implanted in the brain, allowing paralyzed people to control it without movement.

Where current prosthetics rely on existing movement from the remaining limb, a Neuralink robotic arm would be more widely applicable. “We’re excited to announce the approval and launch of a new feasibility trial to extend BCI control using the N1 Implant to an investigational assistive robotic arm,” wrote Neuralink in an announcement post on X. “This is an important first step towards restoring not only digital freedom, but also physical freedom.”
