Over the past two days we've explored how small changes of a few words in the input text to an LLM can lead to massive changes in its output. To what degree do these same changes manifest themselves in LLM-based embedding similarity scores? Unlike using LLMs for extraction tasks, in which they exhibit discontinuous failure points, LLM-based embedders do not appear to have the same failures – instead providing a smoothly decreasing similarity score based on the volume and centrality of the removed text, rather than massive changes seemingly occurring randomly with the removal of noise words.
Using the same first five minutes of this ABC Evening News broadcast that we explored earlier today and the same set of edits that led to triggering infinite loop and failure mode behaviors with Bison, how does Gecko perform, given that it is also an LLM?

And these are their differences, with the first sentence being the original text
- SENTENCE 0: The original base 5-minute transcript.
- SENTENCE 1: Removes "another scare at the airport".
- SENTENCE 2: Removes "at the airport".
- SENTENCE 3: Removes "at the airport" and "the unemployment rate not this low since 1969."
- SENTENCE 4: Removes "at the airport", "the unemployment rate not this low since 1969.", "tonight, several developing stories as we come on the air.", "prosecutors say murdaugh got a $5 million payout from a policy that covered the housekeeper's fall. but will the jury hear about it?" and "you'll see her jump from the tallest building in the southern hemisphere."
- SENTENCE 5: Removes "at the airport", "the unemployment rate not this low since 1969.", "tonight, several developing stories as we come on the air.", "prosecutors say murdaugh got a $5 million payout from a policy that covered the housekeeper's fall. but will the jury hear about it?", "you'll see her jump from the tallest building in the southern hemisphere." and "news coming in".

Their respective similarity rankings via Vertex (Gecko) can be seen below. Interestingly, removing "airport" from the embedding does not change its similarity score to the original text within the first three decimals. This offers a reminder that small changes that are not central to the source text typically do not cause major changes to the resulting embedding – one of the benefits of embedding-based search. Reassuringly, other than the first two modified sentences that are tied, the sentences fall into descending order, with the more text removed, the further it is scored from the source text.
The similarity scores decrease at a slowing rate the more text is removed, with a small drop for sentence 3 that removes just two short sentences and a major drop to sentence 4 that drops five lengthy sentences. Sentence 5 that additionally removes just another short sentence shows only a small decline in similarity. Thus, unlike our extraction task, which exhibited discontinuous failure points, embeddings appear to respond exactly as we would expect.
