model · Embedding Models
BGE is a family of embedding models trained specifically for retrieval, available in sizes small enough to run locally. It solves the problem that a general-purpose embedding model is not optimised for the asymmetric comparison a search query and a document require. It exists because retrieval quality is set at the embedding step, so a model trained for it improves everything downstream without changing anything else.
model · Embedding Models
Text Embedding 3 is OpenAI's hosted embedding family, notable for letting the caller choose a shorter output vector than the model natively produces. It solves the storage problem directly: embedding indexes are sized by dimensions times vectors, so trimming 3072 dimensions to 512 or 256 shrinks the index substantially at a small quality cost. It exists because that trade is one the caller is better placed to make than the model author, and it removes the need to retrain to change it.
