Great viz; the original paper wasn't peer reviewed; it might be great but I've learned its a waste of time to read those in current times (sorry and take this as one data point that suggests they should have done that).

That said, I've found FAISS great for certain use cases; wanted to say thx for surfacing - its not updated to work with most packages these days outside of faiss-cpu - curious why Meta dropped its maintenance; was it due to its slower speed or otherwise priorities?
