food descriptions have tasty in them.

Maybe a lot, right?

Maybe.

But like five miles away sort of becomes the issue where it's like, oh, okay, that means near me, but five miles away now starts getting brought into my text search, right?

And I'm now looking for results that have the sequence of words five miles away in them, which is like going to be none if you're thinking about like a description of a food item.

So what...

embeddings are able to do is they're able to sort of strip away the irrelevant context of text and only focus on like what truly matters and like what the meaning of what someone's saying is.

So when I say, hey, I want like, you know, tasty burger, five, five miles away from me, what I'm really saying is I want like a possibly sandwich like item that is near me.

Right.

And I just need to show results that are near me that have like a burger or sandwich like item.

Right.

Right.

Yeah.

Yeah.

But like so the distance becomes a slightly different thing here.

But what really matters is that now.

were able to say, hey, I'm able to understand that burger is related to McDonald's.

Burger is related to Burger King.

Burger is related to Five Guys.

But maybe burger isn't associated with Popeyes.
