Hugging Face introduces Matryoshka embedding models, which allow embeddings to be truncated to smaller dimensions while retaining performance, improving efficiency for downstream tasks.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://huggingface.co/blog/matryoshka:

> These Matryoshka embedding models are trained such that these small truncated embeddings would still be useful. In short, Matryoshka embedding models can produce useful embeddings of various dimensions.
