OCI Generative AI now supports Cohere Embed 4
- Services: Generative AI
- Release Date: July 03, 2025
OCI Generative AI has added support for Cohere Embed 4. This model processes mixed modality inputs (text and images in a single payload) to generate text embeddings.
- Key Features
-
- Matryoshka Embeddings
- Generates embeddings in vector dimensions: 256, 512, 1,024, and 1,536.
- Nested vector representations, not available in Embed 3 models.
- Mixed Modality Input
- Combine text and images in one payload for text embeddings.
- Available through API only (not in the Console).
- Images must be base64 encoded. Use a token calculator for image token counts (for example, 512x512 image ≈ 1,610 tokens).
- Context Length
- In the API and SDK, total tokens per embedding can be up to 128,000 tokens per run.
- In the Console, text inputs < 512 tokens each and maximum 96 inputs per run.
- Language Support
- Text: English or multilingual.
- Image: English only.
