      -d '{
          "model": "@nomic/nomic-embed-text-v1.5",
          "input": "create vector representation on this sentence"
      }'
  ```

      model="@nomic/nomic-embed-text-v1.5",
      messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
  )

  print(response.choices[0].message.content)
  ```
