About all-MiniLM-L6-v2
all-MiniLM-L6-v2 (23M) is a embeddings, ai building model. Ultra-lightweight embedding model at 23M params. Fastest option for local embeddings. Lower quality than nomic-embed but practically free in VRAM. Ideal when running alongside large coding models and every MB of VRAM matters. The tiny model for builders who need RAG without the VRAM cost.
