Exercise

Creating and configuring a Pinecone index

To kickstart your semantic search application, you'll create and configure a new Pinecone index named 'pinecone-datacamp'. You'll use this in subsequent exercises to host Wikipedia articles from the SQuAD dataset.

If you accidentally create a valid index that doesn't meet the specifications detailed in the instructions, you'll need to add the following code before your .create_index() code:

pc.delete_index('pinecone-datacamp')
