		txtai on Feb 7, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: OpenAI-to-SQLite txtai is an alternative approach to this. It builds a FAISS (also supports HNSW) index alongside a SQLite database. It works with sentence-transformers models. For example, this model https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v... is 384 dimensions and works great for semantic search. https://github.com/neuml/txtai https://neuml.github.io/txtai/embeddings/query/

Thanks. Just want people to know there are quality FOSS alternatives available for encoding text into embeddings.
