⏱️ RAG explained in 13 seconds 1️⃣ Stage 1: Ingestion External data is cleaned and transformed into a format that the model understands. ✂️ Chunking External data is split into smaller chunks to enable efficient processing and improve retrieval by helping the model access and rank only the most relevant sections. ✨ Embedding generation Chunked data is passed to an embedding model and transformed into vectors. 2️⃣ Stage 2: Inference After external data is encoded and stored, it’s ready to be retrieved during inference, when the model generates a response or answers a question. 🔍 Retrieval Data is retrieved from an external knowledge source in relation to a user query. The simplest form of retrieval is finding data most similar to the query through semantic similarity search. 🔧 Augmentation Retrieved external information is inserted it into a predefined prompt template. ✍️ Generation The model consumes the augmented prompt and generates a coherent, accurate, and contextually relevant response that references the enriched external data.

We love open source tools like Flox! It’s a super cool tool that lets you create consistent developer environments across different machines and to share those environments with your colleagues too. They recently wrote about how Flox can create a turn key RAG stack on your development machine using Weaviate and Verba with Ollama for inference. Check out the blog here: https://lnkd.in/gKjJMZsU

Ever wondered how you can leverage the power of Weaviate without the technical overhead? With Lamatic.ai, you can build sophisticated applications that leverage your data through RAG. Learn more in this blog post: https://lnkd.in/ehKKPnRy

🎓 What if AI and teachers could work together to revolutionize education? We’re at a point where AI isn’t just a tool—it’s a real partner for teachers. Instead of replacing educators and specialists, it helps them reach more students with a high-quality learning experiences. With tools like Tutor CoPilot, we’re combining human expertise with AI to give teachers a boost and make learning more accessible for everyone. 🌍 Watch the full podcast with Rose E.
