This book aims to introduce a range of audiences to vectors. From first learning about vectors, using vectors for building search experiences to more difficult topics such as optimizing vectors for personalized search engines and detecting biases in vectors.

This book is designed such that each piece of content exists in bite-sized chunks to allow for easier information consumption for the reader and intended to maximize utility and readability as much as possible.

Intended Audiences

Due to the varying levels at which different individuals can approach vectors, each article is written with pre-requisite knowledge and intended audiences. However, the intended audiences may not be exactly exhaustive and readers will often find that our articles are quite easy to digest despite the higher technical bar that has been set.

Why write this book?

Vector AI's mission is to accelerate the development of artificial intelligence products using vectors. We see vectors as a technology that will change the future so we want to make using vectors as easy as possible. We discovered that the general data scientist/public does not know much about vectors so we set out to write this book to help others learn and understand them for their use. Along the way, we include tips on how to use vectors and how they can be used with the Vector AI API.
