It is up for testing, but you likely get the effect of "don't think about a pink elephant." So I guess that for most embedding models, "articles about San Francisco that don't mention cars" are closest to artic

It's nice to hear that! And from this thread, it is not us only two—otherwise, the title wouldn't have resonated with the Hacker News community. This blog post stemmed from my frustration that people use cosine distance without a

If you ask, "Is '5+5' similar to '10'?" it depends on which notion of similarity you have - there are multiple differences: different symbols, one is an expression, the other is just a number. But if you ask, &

Technically speaking, cross encoders are LLMs - they use the last layer to predict similarity (a single number) rather than the probability of the next token. They are faster than generative models only if they are simpler - otherwise, ther

According to text-embedding-3-large, "french press" and "espresso" have a cosine similarity of 0.506. More than half, so we are fine, right? Right?

Well, "Is {sentence_a} similar to {sentence_b}?" is the correct query when we care about some vague similarity of statements. In this case, we should go with something in the line "Is {answer} a plausible answer to the questi

The illustrated guide (which I had known during my PhD) focuses on progress—however, niche progress. Yet, PhD students' life experiences are usually not centered around progress but frustration, disillusionment, and depression. If you

I couldn't believe it, so I tried myself with GPT-4o, and the result was the same. Interestingly, the answer is correct when asked which hand is being used in an image. For watches, it doesn't even notice when hands are incorrect.

Thanks! Right now, it does not. I focus on a common case of a single product without any other parts. If there is a summation, it is managed via indices. If you are interested in arbitrary drawings, you are probably aware of TikZ (if you li
