Yeah - it's a great idea. The size of the embeddings is the big restricting factor IMO. Even with my approach of embedding the entire article, my embeddings index was about the same size as my "regular" search index.

Once you start increasing the granularity of what you're embedding (either by paragraph or sentence) then the old-fashioned search index has a big advantage.

Might be worth it in some scenarios because of the quality of the results. I bet there are places where an embedding search would be more effective by orders of magnitude.
