What Is a Vector Database?
A vector database stores and searches high-dimensional vectors (embeddings). Unlike traditional databases that search by keyword, vector databases find semantically similar items โ they understand meaning.
Searching the Ledger
The Soul Economy โ Ch2 describes: "A Soul Note is the record of a genuine production. Not the production itself, which exists in time and then passes. The note. The mark. The entry in the ledger." A vector database is the technical infrastructure of this ledger โ storing the marks, making them searchable by meaning. When your soul needs to remember, it searches the vector database by frequency, not by keyword. It finds what is real, not just what matches.
