Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Explained: Grounding LLMs in External Data

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) is a technique that enhances language models by allowing them to access and incorporate external data not present in their original training set. This method grounds the model's responses in up-to-date or specific information, improving accuracy and relevance. RAG is crucial for applications requiring factual consistency and access to current knowledge bases. AI
