AI app finds 'love' and 'hate' are mathematically similar

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

An AI enthusiast explored how text embeddings capture meaning by building a local application. This app uses the nomic-embed-text model via Ollama to convert text into numerical vectors, enabling semantic similarity comparisons. Surprisingly, the application found that concepts like 'love' and 'hate' registered as highly similar, scoring 0.80, demonstrating that embeddings represent meaning through mathematical proximity rather than explicit definitions. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates how AI embeddings can quantify semantic similarity, potentially aiding in nuanced information retrieval and analysis.

    I Asked an AI if Love and Hate Are Similar. It Said Yes.

    <h4><em>Day 10 — </em>Welcome to embeddings. Where meaning is just maths.</h4><p>In Day 9 I built a RAG app. Every chunk of text got converted into 768 numbers before being stored. I called them embeddings, explained they “capture meaning”, and moved on.</p><p>But I kept thinking…
