This talk gives an overview of:

  • "Classic" search and its limitations
  • What is a model and how can you use it
  • How to use vector search or hybrid search in Elasticsearch
  • Where OpenAI's ChatGPT or similar LLMs come into play to with Elastic

The main demo covers how to generate embeddings from documents and build a RAG application to ask questions of them
