Over time they can become incomplete--or worse, generate answers that are just plain wrong. One way of improving the LLM results is called "retrieval-augmented generation" or RAG. In this video, IBM Senior Research Scientist Marina Danilevsky explains the LLM/RAG framework and how this combination delivers two big advantages, namely: the model gets the most up-to-date and trustworthy facts, and you can see where the model got its info, lending more credibility to what it generates.

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
