AI Index

Definitions

1. An index built to support AI workflows, often by storing embeddings, metadata, or searchable representations that help with retrieval and grounding. AI indexes are common in semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation systems.

   In plain English: An index used to help AI systems find relevant information.

   Example: "The assistant became more accurate after they rebuilt the AI index so obsolete documents stopped ranking above current policy pages."
