It’s called Generic Neural “Elastic Search” - but does it use “Elasticsearch?”

Sorry if it’s a dumb question, poking around I don’t see where it interacts with Elasticsearch (maybe it doesn’t)

My guess: I think they mean the searches are elastic (i.e. F fuzzy). This is the same meaning that Elasticsearch the product emphasises through its product Name. There is crossover in functionality
Seems like elastic here is a reference to the scaling and not to ElasticSearch. It searches by comparing vectors encoded by a neural net
