Text Embedding Ada 002 is OpenAI's legacy embedding model, still widely deployed in existing production systems. While superseded by the Embedding 3 family in terms of quality and flexibility, Ada 002 remains available for backward compatibility and systems that depend on its specific vector characteristics.

Many organizations continue to use Ada 002 because migrating embedding models requires re-embedding entire document collections — a significant operational effort for large-scale deployments.
