When to Use RAG | Slides

Summary: "Discover the optimal scenarios for utilizing Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) in Language Model (LLM) applications to enhance text quality through a blend of retrieval-based and generation-based methods. Learn when RAG is advantageous for contextually rich and informative text, and when simpler tasks may not benefit from its complexity."

When to Use RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) in LLM Applications

RAG, or Retrieval Augmented Generation, is a powerful technique used in Language Model (LLM) applications to enhance the quality of generated text by combining retrieval-based and generation-based approaches. When building LLM applications, it is important to consider the specific use cases where RAG can be beneficial, as well as scenarios where it may not be the most suitable choice.

When to Use RAG When Not to Use RAG
RAG is ideal for scenarios where the generated text needs to be contextually relevant and coherent. Avoid using RAG in cases where the text generation task is simple and does not require complex contextual understanding.
RAG is effective when the LLM application needs to provide detailed and informative responses based on user queries. If the primary goal is to generate short, generic responses, RAG may introduce unnecessary complexity.
RAG can be valuable in applications where the generated text needs to incorporate specific information or facts retrieved from a knowledge base. In situations where the text generation task is purely creative or imaginative, RAG may limit the flexibility of the generated content.
RAG is beneficial when the LLM application requires a balance between factual accuracy and natural language fluency in the generated text. If the text generation task prioritizes creativity and linguistic diversity over factual accuracy, RAG may not be the best choice.
RAG is suitable for applications where the context of the conversation or interaction plays a crucial role in determining the quality of the generated responses. In cases where the text generation task is isolated and does not depend heavily on contextual cues, RAG may introduce unnecessary complexity.

Ultimately, the decision to use RAG in LLM applications should be based on the specific requirements of the project and the desired outcome of the text generation task. By understanding the strengths and limitations of RAG, developers and content creators can effectively leverage this technique to enhance the quality and relevance of generated text in a variety of applications.

Build Dataproducts

How Dataknobs help in building data products

Enterprises are most successful when they treat data like a product. It enable to use data in multiple use cases. However data product should be designed differently compared to software product.

Be Data Centric and well governed

Generative AI is one of approach to build data product

Generative AI has enabled many transformative scenarios. We combine generative AI, AI, automation, web scraping, ingesting dataset to build new data products. We have expertise in generative AI, but for business benefit we define our goal to build data product in data centric manner. Our Product KREATE enable creation of data, user interface, AI assistant. Click to see it in action.

Well Governed data

Data Lineage and Extensibility

To build a commercial data product, create a base data product. Then add extension to these data product by adding various types of transformation. However it lead to complexity as you have to manage Data Lineage. Use knobs for lineage and extensibility

Build Budget Plan for GenAI

CIO Guide to create GenAI Budget for 2025

CIOs and CTOs can apply GenAI in IT Systems. The guide here describe scenarios and solutions for IT system, tech stack, GenAI cost and how to allocate budget. Once CIO and CTO can apply this to IT system, it can be extended for business use cases across company.

Create AI Agent

Build AI Agents - 5 types

AI agent independently chooses the best actions it needs to perform to achieve their goals. AI agents make rational decisions based on their perceptions and data to produce optimal performance and results. Here are features of AI Agent, Types and Design patterns

Develop data products with KREATE and AB Experiment

Develop data products and check user response thru experiment

As per HBR Data product require validation of both 1. whether algorithm work 2. whether user like it. Builders of data product need to balance between investing in data-building and experimenting. Our product KREATE focus on building dataset and apps , ABExperiment focus on ab testing. Both are designed to meet data product development lifecycle

Innovate with experiments

Experiment faster and cheaper with knobs

In complex problems you have to run hundreds of experiments. Plurality of method require in machine learning is extremely high. With Dataknobs approach, you can experiment thru knobs.

RAG For Unstructred and Structred Data

RAG Use Cases and Implementation

Here are several value propositions for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) across different contexts: Unstructred Data, Structred Data, Guardrails.

Why knobs matter

Knobs are levers using which you manage output

See Drivetrain appproach for building data product, AI product. It has 4 steps and levers are key to success. Knobs are abstract mechanism on input that you can control.
