#LLM/RAG
This is a neat new variant on RAG - no vectors, not even full-text search, instead showing the model a header hierarchy and giving it a tool to read the relevant sections

One more thing: RAG is not dying.

- Search + LLM = RAG
- Agent Search + LLM = still RAG

Remember:

The 'R' in RAG stands for Retrieval.
The 'AG' in RAG stands for Augmented Generation.

The Mayo Clinic has come up with an approach to reduce LLM hallucinations.

Instead of RAG where relevant sources are included into the query to “ground” the result, their approach is to have the answer link back to authoritative sources. Then have a second LLM vet those citations.
Mayo Clinic’s secret weapon against AI hallucinations: Reverse RAG in action
To tackle data-retrieval-based hallucinations in non-diagnostic use cases, Mayo Clinic has applied CURE reverse RAG paired with vector databases.

A common comment on my videos about LLM "hallucinations" is that this isn't as much of a problem because LLMs "cite their sources" now. This is a category error.

Citing a source implies it was consulted. LLMs do not consult, even with RAG. A citation might be *included* but it's not *consulted*.

Anyone got a local LLM+RAG setup (for the popular "chat with your documents" / "chat with your data") that they find intuitive and useful?

I feel like local models - especially Llama 3.1 8B or Mistral Small 3 22B - should be capable for this more, what's the best software to run RAG with those?

This is a nice and clear "overview of the state of RAG"

okay but a RAG is still fundamentally an LLM

what you want is a better search engine

Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) ist ein KI-Verfahren, das ein LLM mit einer guten Suche, z.B. in einer Dokumentensammlung, in einer Datenbank oder in einem Knowledge Graph ergänzt, um Antworten zu generieren.
