That paper is interesting but it doesn't necessarily work better. I have OpenAI vectors for about 250k podcast episode descriptions and just searching "pyramids" works about the same as asking GPT to write 500 words about pyramids and then doing vector search against that essay. So worth testing out, but not guaranteed better

Oh, yes - in my tests it worked better most of the time but there were some cases where the results were worse. Regarding the “pyramids” - I think it might work better with actual questions.
