the question is if quality will be acceptable

[flysand7]

The question if machine learning algorithm's produced embeddings will have the acceptable quality too. With a library I presume that the quality is at least predictable. I personally have less trust in machine learning though

there are tons of benchmarks and results which demonstrated that embeddings from language models are superior to word2vec in (almost) all scenarios.
