transformer — The neural network architecture behind modern AI models, built on attention — letting every word directly consider every other word in parallel.
embedding — A list of numbers representing a piece of text's meaning, so that similar meanings end up numerically close and can be searched.
quantization — Shrinking a model by storing its numbers less precisely — like rounding — so it runs faster and fits on smaller hardware, at a small quality cost.
