What to use instead of qwen/qwen3-embedding-4b-batch
Move to Qwen/Qwen3-Embedding-4B, as recommended by DeepInfra. Switching requires more than changing the model identifier, because embeddings from another model are not comparable and stored vectors must all be computed again with the new model.
Embeddings from another model are not comparable with this one's: vectors the code stores must all be computed again with the new model.
