What is a text embedding?
- A compressed ZIP copy of the text
- An image generated from the text
- A numeric vector that represents the meaning of the text, so that similar texts have nearby vectors
- A list of the words in the text in alphabetical order
Answer and explanation
Answer: C. A numeric vector that represents the meaning of the text, so that similar texts have nearby vectors
Explanation: Embedding models map text to dense vectors in a semantic space. Semantically similar texts end up close together, which enables semantic search and clustering.
