RAG in production is no longer "retrieve a few documents, paste into a prompt, and hope the answer is correct". The modern pattern is Agentic RAG: plan-execute loops, search across enterprise sources and the web, shared memory, tool use, and verification. ✍️ Read more: zeta-alpha.com/post/agentic...

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems have gained traction because of their ability to ground generated answers in knowledge sources, allowing for higher accuracy and reliability. However, challenges arise when it comes to evaluation, particularly in the absence of clear ground truth data.

Catch us live today at 8 AM PST / 5 PM CEST for our monthly Trends in AI webinar - diving into AI evaluations, LLM benchmarking, relevance metrics for RAG, popular eval libraries, and the quirks of LLM-as-a-Judge for automated & continuous assessment of AI systems' performance. lu.ma/trends-in-ai...
