Have you considered using a proper vector database like Qdrant (https://qdrant.tech)? In the demo, it might be just fine to calculate the distance to all the articles in the knowledge base, but in a real case scenario, you'll sooner or later face scaling issues.

Also, libraries such as Langchain are integrated with both LLMs and vector databases, so you can prototype even faster.

Thank you for your comment!

I hadn't come across Qdrant before, but I will definitely check it out. Although I've been experimenting with milvus.io lately, these vector databases weren't on my radar when I first started exploring embeddings.

Langchain looks incredibly fascinating too! At first glance, it seems like it could be my go-to library for prototyping. I appreciate your suggestion.
