Automate AI-Powered Document Retrieval with Paul Essays, Milvus, and OpenAI

The workflow consists of two main phases: data collection and processing, and retrieval and response generation. Initially, it scrapes essays from Paul Graham's website, processes the content, and stores it in a Milvus vector store using OpenAI embeddings for vectorization. Upon receiving a query, it retrieves relevant information, prepares the data, and generates a comprehensive response with citations using OpenAI models.
