Very proud of what our team at Meta AI did to advance SoTA in Information Retrieval and Question Answering (both performance and scale) in multiple ways (siamese nets, self-supervised learning, data augmentation, distributed FAISS, etc).

We’re sharing details about dense retrieval models that will help pave the way for ubiquitous neural information retrieval. This research will not only improve search as we currently use it, but also enable smarter AI agents of the future.
