If you want to override those defaults and customize the embeddings that
319+
`semantic_text` stores, you can do so by modifying <<semantic-text-params,
320+
parameters>>:
321+
322+
- Use `index_options` to specify alternate index options such as specific
323+
`dense_vector` quantization methods
324+
- Use `chunking_settings` to override the chunking strategy associated with the
325+
{{infer}} endpoint, or completely disable chunking using the `none` type
