ai_embedding_lookup vulnerable to embedding

ai embedding lookupVulnerable Toembedding drift

Source: Workload·Target: Failure Mode

Summary

AI embedding lookup workloads are directly vulnerable to embedding drift when source content changes without triggering re-embedding, silently degrading retrieval quality without any error signal.

Evidence

·embedding_drift silently degrades RAG/semantic-search retrieval and lists vector_similarity_search in affects_patterns (failure_modes/embedding_drift.yaml)
·ai_embedding_lookup's example_systems are RAG retrieval, semantic search, and recommendation - drift's victims (workloads/ai_embedding_lookup.yaml)

Evidence grounding

Grounded, 2 supporting items

The workload's stored-embedding retrieval is exactly the substrate embedding drift corrupts, without error signal.
