Yes you are wrong. RAG means retrieval-augmented generation. If you’re generating something and that generation is augmented by some retrieval you’re doing RAG.

Yes you are wrong. RAG means retrieval-augmented generation. If you’re generating something and that generation is augmented by some retrieval you’re doing RAG. The retrieval doesn’t need to be from a vector db or even based on semantic similarity.

- seanhunter 3mo agoDon't blame me, blame the people who invented the concept and wrote the original RAG paper. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.11401 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.11401

- seanhunter 3mo agoBacking a question about definition up with the actual source of the definition isn’t “dumb gatekeeping”. You feel that there is a right way to do RAG and you’ve written a framework that does it that way. That’s great. I’m not the one who’s saying that certain things are not RAG so I don’t really see how I’m gatekeeping. I was actually trying to be helpful.
