Embeddings
A way of converting text, images, or other data into a list of numbers that captures its meaning, so a computer can measure how similar two pieces of content are.
Think of it like
Like assigning every word or image GPS coordinates on a giant 'meaning map,' so things with similar meaning end up located near each other.
Junior or senior?
Junior sounds like
Says embeddings 'capture meaning' with no further detail.
Senior sounds like
Can explain what similarity actually means numerically, and how they measured whether their embeddings were finding relevant results.
Ask them
“How did you measure whether your embeddings were actually finding relevant results?”
