Now that we understand, vectors can be used to capture the meaning behind data, and can also be understood by machines, let's imagine all of our data in vector form. We can take all the data files that we have on our computer, or information that our company wants to store and represent them as vectors. This is known as embedding your data into vector space. We visualized each of these vectors as a green point in this visual. You can embed text files, images, audio, video, and more into vector space. In this vector space, similar file vectors are closer together, while vectors for dissimilar files are further apart. Now, let's think about how we can search through this data. Searching involves asking a question or querying. For example, you might want to retrieve the images of your family vacation from your computer. We now want to take the question and see which information on our computer is relevant. How can we search through the tens of thousands of data points and retrieve the…
