These are very interesting and well-founded arguments. However, I believe the solution should not be around LLMs. As rightly pointed out in the article, the proposed solution is prohibitively expensive. How could I instead reformulate the approach to align with my specific definition of similarity?

I believe the intention here was to highlight a use case where cosine similarity falls short, leading into the next section that introduces alternatives. That said, I would appreciate more detail in the 'Extracting the right features' section, if someone has an example I would love to see it.
