How to generate vector embeddings with text-embedding-ada-002
There are two primary ways to create vector embeddings:
- PyMilvus: the Python SDK for Milvus that seamlessly integrates with the
text-embedding-ada-002
model. - OpenAI Library: the Python SDK offered by OpenAI.
Once the vector embeddings are generated, they can be stored in Zilliz Cloud (a fully managed vector database service powered by Milvus) and used for semantic similarity search. Here are four key steps:
- Sign up for a Zilliz Cloud account for free.
- Set up a serverless cluster and obtain the Public Endpoint and API Key.
- Create a vector collection and insert your vector embeddings.
- Run a semantic search on the stored embeddings.
