Note: the labels is a sliding random value of the word surrounding the words of the batch.
It is not obvious with the output above, but all the data are based on index, and not the word directly.

# Optimizer.
# Note: The optimizer will optimize the softmax_weights AND the embeddings.

This is what an embedding looks like:

All the values are abstract, there is practical meaning of the them. Moreover, the final embeddings are normalized as you can see here:

An alternative to skip-gram is another Word2Vec model called CBOW (Continuous Bag of Words). In the CBOW model, instead of predicting a context word from a word vector, you predict a word from the sum of all the word vectors in its context. Implement and evaluate a CBOW model trained on the text8 dataset.
