Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)

A technique that enhances LLM responses by retrieving relevant information from external knowledge sources before generating a response. RAG improves accuracy, reduces hallucinations, and enables LLMs to access up-to-date information without retraining.

Semantic Search

A search approach that retrieves results based on the meaning and intent of a query rather than exact keyword matches. Semantic search is powered by embeddings and vector databases, enabling far more relevant enterprise knowledge retrieval.

Explainability (XAI)
