Gemini and OSS text embeddings are now in BigQuery ML

High-quality text embeddings are the engine for modern AI applications like semantic search, classification, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). But when it comes to picking a model to generate these embeddings, we know one size doesn’t fit all. Some use cases demand state-of-the-art quality, while others prioritize cost, speed, or compatibility with the open-source ecosystem. To
