Description
This WordPress plugin indexes your blog posts using the embeddings feature of OpenAI, and uses this data to enrich the BrainySearch request. When a user searches for content using the [brainy_search] shortcode, the plugin returns the most relevant search results based on the content of the indexed blog posts, along with a temperature label (0-100) that indicates the “creativity” or “diversity” of the results.
