TALK

RAG: 0-100km/h in 30 mins

You've barely got your mind around LLMs like ChatGPT and now you see the term RAG everywhere. What is a RAG in layman's terms, why should you care and what can and can't it do?

This talk takes the attendee from 0 to RAG in simple words, explaining some of the concepts you'll see and giving some clear examples of what makes it tick. We'll cover things like embedding models and vector databases as well as context retrievers and prompt templates. After this talk you'll have a better idea about RAG and why it's exciting (it is, I promise!)
