🤔 I need a memory system for this.

Urgent ⚠️ : If you are using the cohere.command-r-16k model (the default in APEX) or cohere.command-r-plus in on-demand serving mode on #oci then it retires tomorrow 2025-01-30. Take action today! Suggested Replacement model in the picture

Why can I call #orclapex apex_ai.get_vector_embeddings in SQL Workshop, but I cannot call apex_ai.generate? Both use Workspace Level Objects - same code works fine in Apps

Trying out the new "Create Data Model Using AI" in #orclapex 24.2. Looks nice 👍 although I can only get it to work with "Quick SQL" selected - which is my preferred format anyway. Oh, and the menu entry is missing from SQL Workshop > Utilities > Create Data Model Using AI
