🎤 Talk 1: Distilling the meaning of language with vector embeddings in Elasticsearch

Vector embeddings have been used as a foundation in NLP for years and have evolved as fast as the field itself. How do they work behind the scenes? This talk will dive deep into various types of vector embeddings, how they work behind the scenes, and using them to power Generative AI products, RAG, semantic search, etc. We'll also show how we use vector embeddings to power our own AI Assistant, which is helping security analysts around the world. Presented by Susan Chang, Principal Data Scientist I at Elastic and James Spiteri, Product Management Director at Elastic.
