Day 2 - Supabase Functions now supports AI models

Supabase Functions has added a native API that makes it easy to run AI models within your functions while removing nasty cold starts. You can use the gte-small embedding model to generate text embeddings or bring your own Ollama server to tap into many more embedding models and Large Language Models (LLMs) like Llama3 and Mistral. Soon we’ll provide hosted Ollama servers so you won’t have to manage them yourselves for a more seamless experience.

Day 3 - Supabase Auth now supports Anonymous sign-ins

Supabase Auth heard your requests and went to work building anonymous sign-ins which enable you to create temporary users that have yet to sign up for your application. This lowers the friction for visitors to use your application while making it easy to convert them to permanent users once they’re hooked.
