Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) is a technique for enhancing the accuracy and reliability of generative AI models with information found through specific and relevant data sources.
RAG is used to link generative AI services to external sources like technical details or other relevant data sources.
RAG helps models to become more trustworthy and accurate, making them more efficient in delivering authoritative answers.
With RAG, one can have conversations with data repositories, which opens up new applications for the advent of AI.
RAGs relatively easy set up empowers developers with the ability to implement it with as few as five lines of code, till date.
Companies such as AWS, IBM, Google, Oracle, Microsoft, and Pinecone are adopting RAG for LLMs.
NVIDIA AI Blueprints enables developers to build pipelines that connect AI applications to enterprise data using industry-leading technology.
The NVIDIA LaunchPad lab provides developers and IT teams with hands-on training on how to build AI chatbots with RAG.
RAG can potentially enhance customer service operations, employee training, and developer productivity.
The future of generative AI lies in agents with knowledge bases that can dynamically orchestrate to create autonomous assistants with authoritative and verifiable results for users.
