New comment by emschwartz in "Ask HN: Best Embedding Models?"

emschwartz — Tue, 05 May 2026 12:44:08 +0000

I’ve been using MixedBread, which is a pretty old model at this point. Recently, I tried comparing it to some newer models and was disappointed that the results weren’t dramatically and uniformly better.

You probably can’t go wrong if you pick a recent one that scores decently well on benchmarks and is at the right price point (or memory requirement) for whatever you’re trying to do.

Thanks for that! I added the first one to the feedback board here https://feedback.scour.ing/142 and I'm tweaking the recommendations to avoid topics like Swedish filesystems.

Let me know if you have any other suggestions!

Let me know if you have any feedback on it.
