* FEATURE: Embeddings to main db
This commit moves our embeddings store from an external configurable PostgreSQL
instance back into the main database. This is done to simplify the setup.
There is a migration that will try to import the external embeddings into
the main DB if it is configured and there are rows.
It removes support from embeddings models that aren't all_mpnet_base_v2 or OpenAI
text_embedding_ada_002. However it will now be easier to add new models.
It also now takes into account:
- topic title
- topic category
- topic tags
- replies (as much as the model allows)
We introduce an interface so we can eventually support multiple strategies
for handling long topics.
This PR severely damages the semantic search performance, but this is a
temporary until we can get adapt HyDE to make semantic search use the same
embeddings we have for semantic related with good performance.
Here we also have some ground work to add post level embeddings, but this
will be added in a future PR.
Please note that this PR will also block Discourse from booting / updating if
this plugin is installed and the pgvector extension isn't available on the
PostgreSQL instance Discourse uses.
* DEV: Better strategies for summarization
The strategy responsibility needs to be "Given a collection of texts, I know how to summarize them most efficiently, using the minimum amount of requests and maximizing token usage".
There are different token limits for each model, so it all boils down to two different strategies:
Fold all these texts into a single one, doing the summarization in chunks, and then build a summary from those.
Build it by combining texts in a single prompt, and truncate it according to your token limits.
While the latter is less than ideal, we need it for "bart-large-cnn-samsum" and "flan-t5-base-samsum", both with low limits. The rest will rely on folding.
* Expose summarized chunks to users
* Minor... use username suggester in case username already exists
* FIX: ensure we truncate long prompts
Previously we
1. Used raw length instead of token counts for counting length
2. We totally dropped a prompt if it was too long
New implementation will truncate "raw" if it gets too long maintaining
meaning.
