Validate activity before betting a new project on VoiceStreamAI. - Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate. - Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge. - Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic. ## When NOT to use mempalace - Avoid if requiring a proprietary system where full transparency or customization of the memory management layer may not be necessary, since MemPalace is open source and might involve deeper technical啃 - "如果你的应用场景对内存管理层的完全透明或定制化需求不高，因为MemPalace是开源的，可能需要更深的技术介入来满足特定需求。" - If your project strictly adheres to non-MIT licenses, then MemPalace might not be suitable due to its MIT license which may conflict with licensing requirements. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between VoiceStreamAI and mempalace?
