Describe the solution you'd like
A new option in the admin settings to allow using embeddings based search among the chats. Allowing also to specify the embeddings engine to use (as they are not at all all fit for non english languages)

Describe alternatives you've considered
Taking longer to search for the chats I'm looking for

Additional context
With the increasing importance of LLMs in my life, the sheer number of chats I have is starting to get overwhelming with only word based chat search.

Actually after giving it some thoughts I think the best would be to create an actual chat browser. This will be needed eventually because chat folders and tagging are bound to happen, as I talk about it there
