What is AI search?
Lexical (keyword) search
Looks for patterns and exact word or string matches. Searching by keywords doesn’t always get you the right answer
AI search
Uses the meaning of the search query and puts it into context; it returns relevant results even if they don’t exactly match the query. Searching by meaning or relevance gets you your answer and more!
