<p><strong><a href="https://alexgarcia.xyz/blog/2024/building-new-vector-search-sqlite/index.html">I&#x27;m writing a new vector search SQLite Extension</a></strong></p> Alex Garcia is working on <code>sqlite-vec</code>, a spiritual successor to his <code>sqlite-vss</code> project. The new SQLite C extension will have zero other dependencies (<code>sqlite-vss</code> used some tricky C++ libraries) and will work using virtual tables, storing chunks of vectors in shadow tables to avoid needing to load everything into memory at once. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/c">c</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/sqlite">sqlite</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/vectors">vectors</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/alex-garcia">alex-garcia</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/vector-search">vector-search</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/embeddings">embeddings</a></p>
