Talk Abstract:

Elasticsearch: Vector and Hybrid Search - Kent Brake, Senior Principal Solutions Architect at Elastic

Search is not just traditional TF/IDF anymore: the current trend of machine learning and models has opened another dimension for search. This talk gives an overview of:

• “Classic” search and its limitations
• What is a model and how you can use it
• How to use vector search or hybrid search in Elasticsearch
• Where OpenAI’s ChatGPT or similar LLMs come into play with Elastic
