In 2013, researchers at Google discovered something remarkable. They trained a model to represent words as lists of numbers, vectors, and found that these numbers captured meaning in an almost magical way. Take the vector for "King," subtract the vector for "Man," add the vector for "Woman," and the result points to "Queen." Paris minus France plus Italy gives you Rome. This wasn't programmed. It emerged naturally from patterns in text data. Meaning, it turns out, has a geometry. Related concepts cluster together in vector space, analogies become arithmetic, and the distance between two points reflects the distance between two ideas. This insight powers modern search, recommendation systems, and RAG pipelines.
