How Vector Search Actually Works
From brute-force comparison to the approximate algorithms that make searching millions of vectors feel instant.
Watch on YouTube● systems-design explainers for the AI stack
Clean, animated, systems-design-style explainers on how AI/ML tooling actually works — vector search, RAG pipelines, agent frameworks, inference serving — the plumbing layer most content skips past.
From brute-force comparison to the approximate algorithms that make searching millions of vectors feel instant.
Watch on YouTubeWhat actually happens between a question and a grounded answer — retrieval, augmentation, generation, and the three failure modes behind most bad RAG answers.
