The New Era of Search: Search Redefined
Search is evolving beyond traditional TF/IDF, opening up new dimensions with machine learning and advanced models. In this session, we'll explore the limitations of "classic" search, understand what models are and how to use them, and dive into vector and hybrid search in Elasticsearch. We'll also discuss the role of LLMs in enhancing search capabilities.
