Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Data Science, Analytics and AI/ML

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is an AI technique that combines a large language model with an external knowledge retrieval system, allowing the model to fetch relevant documents or data before generating a response. This approach improves factual accuracy and reduces hallucination by grounding outputs in up-to-date or domain-specific information not contained in the model's training data. Machine learning engineers and AI application developers use RAG to build chatbots, search assistants, and question-answering systems.
