We seem to be seeing a lot of update usage for Glide Ai.  
I was under the impression that these columns are only regenerated and count as an update when changes are made to the Ai instructions or the input changes.

Can anyone confirm?

We have begun to move the Ai function from the table to the action. Meaning when new rows are added the Ai is used in the action to create a text column value.  
There is a trade off as we can’t easily change the Ai parameters and have it update all the values.

I wonder this as well, can you clarify @NoCodeAndy @Jeremy ? Thank you.

Any clarification on this @NoCodeAndy @david ?

For example with the start of November one of our apps immediately clocked 400 updates for Ai. As the instructions hadn’t been updated for the Ai column and we haven’t added 400 new rows to that table, seems it is reprocessing the Ai column at least monthly if not more regularly.

If it’s anything like the OpenAI integration, it refreshes the cache every 30 days.

Thanks Jeff.  
Sounds right and lines up with what we’re seeing.
