Topic: Embeddings are Cooler than ChatGPT: An intro to OpenAI's Embeddings

There's been a lot of talk about ChatGPT, but not enough talk about OpenAI's embedding models. Embeddings are a language model's representation of the meaning of text, and in this talk, we cover how we can use OpenAI embeddings API to solve classification and recommendation problems. We'll also cover how it can be used to intelligently search through documents and any other kind of text. I'll end with a quick demo showing how I'm using embeddings to search across application copy to help users find out how to do things within the software they use.
