Vector Similarity Search Hides in Plain View

What this post added

This post provides a high-level overview of vector similarity search, explaining what it is, its applications (e-commerce, security, recommendation engines, chatbots, image/video search, chemical similarity search), and introduces Milvus as an open-source vector data management platform. It discusses the conversion of unstructured data to feature vectors using neural networks and the use of Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) algorithms to accelerate similarity search.
