does llama-index work with Spotify's `annoy` library?
At a glance
The post asks if the llama-index library works with Spotify's annoy library. The community members discuss the potential integration, with one member noting that they do not have any integration with annoy. They mention that annoy is an Approximate Nearest Neighbors (ANN) library, and discuss the potential benefits of using ANN over cosine similarity for retrieving nodes using embeddings, especially for small chunks of text. However, there is no definitive answer provided in the comments.
Please stand by @ryanglambert as I search the knowledge base. We are experiencing especially high traffic right now and might take longer than usual. :wave:
---------------------- Hmm, I don't know enough to give you a confident answer yet. The provided extracts do not mention any integration with Spotify's annoy library. You can refer to the LlamaIndex documentation for more information: https://gpt-index.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
That's definitely a good point. But I think with small chunks, the problem is probably more with embeddings themselves? Well, at least that's my impression (the cosine similarity starts to become very similar for small chunks)
