Yes. More on LlamaIndex please. I so appreciate your clear and thoughtful tutorials. Beautifully done!

Thank you for your effort. This is by far the most structured and easy to understand introduction into LlamaIndex / RAG topic.

Been looking at this for a few weeks and this is the perfect start for anyone wanting to understand RAG and llama index. Fantastic video :)

Thank you so much man, just yesterday I was struggling with the same thing, there is no recent content on llamaindex, everything is outdated. This is a live-saver, please continue this series.

[davidtindell]

Works Very Well and very low cost (in pennies per PDF). Further savings by 'Persisting the Index' ... Thank You Yet Again! I own you a whole pot of coffee ! 😄

[janwillemaltink]

always eager to start building things after watching one of your videos. You really have a talent for explaining things super clear and easy .

LLamaindex looks like a survivor. Would love to see some of the advanced new features in your coming tutorials.

[tlyoon]

Am considering using llamaindex for my ai application project after viewing your wonderfully done video, which is straightforward, simple and absolutely understandable. I am expecting a follow-up video by you on how to deploy llamaindex online for a realistic entrepreneur setting.
