Embedding Gemini models Questions

So Google states that for their the new embeddings model, there is a new task type parameter and the optional title (only valid with task_type=RETRIEVAL_DOCUMENT).
1. However, I was wondering how much better do specifying these parameters change the embedding vector result? How much better is an embedding result used with a parameter then without? Also, what happens when you use an embedding with a wrong type parameter for a different use case, are the results completely wrong?
2. Also are all vectors returned from the embedding Gemini model normalized, not mentioned in the documentation online?

    Great question!

    I'll follow up on question one but for question two; vectors returned from the embedding Gemini model are not normalized.

    Thanks for the answer, in the event you do not get the answer to this question before the hackathon ends, I would still love to know the answer to this. I hope you enjoy what I build.
