Aim v2.3.0 — System Resource Usage and Reverse Grouping

Aim 2.3.0 is out! Thanks to the community for feedback and support on our journey towards democratizing AI dev tools.

Check out the updated Aim at play.aimstack.io.

Below are the highlight features of the update. Find the full list of changes here.
