Making AI Smarter with Retrieval-Augmented Generation
Large language models are quite prevalent in today’s technological world. They can answer questions, generate text, and simulate human-like conversation. But for all their power, they suffer from a well-known flaw: they don’t know what they don’t know.
Once trained, an LLM can’t access new information unless it’s retrained or fine-tuned. Both of which are costly and time-consuming processes. This is where Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) comes in. RAG is an architecture that marries the reasoning power of language models with the precision of external knowledge retrieval. In plain terms: it lets AI look things up before answering. And that simple shift is a game changer.
