Semantic caching offers a way to reduce costs for generative AI applications by storing and reusing responses to similar prompts. This technique evaluates the semantic similarity of prompts using vector embeddings, allowing for faster retrieval than direct LLM calls. However, relying solely on semantic similarity can lead to incorrect responses if prompts have similar embeddings but different intents, necessitating robust production architectures with strict thresholds and dual-layer caching.
