How can we access semantic search through the API?

search.json does not seem to have semantic (even though, I remember they did at some point?)

`discourse-ai/embeddings/semantic-search?q=` is called after search.json, good results are correct when I open the URL including query I just did.

But if I `discourse-ai/embeddings/semantic-search?q=differentQuery` directly the results do not make sense at all.

What do I miss here?
