information retrieval is a much larger superset of RAG. grep + agentic LLM is not RAG.

by tw1984 1y ago
No, grep is not RAG. RAG is all about embeddings + vector search + LLM working under a fixed workflow. Saying grep is also RAG is like saying ext4 + grep is a database.

for such dynamic 2bit, is there any benchmark results showing how many performance I would give up compared to the original model? thanks.

the mentioned "two similar mental models" is an interesting of looking at the problem. if that is the actual case, seems to me that a much better model plus an smart enough agent should be able to largely solve the problem. intere

the conclusion of this post seems to be that GPT-5 is significantly better than o3, yet such conclusion is made by the exact far less reliable model o3 as proven by the tests in this post. thanks, but no thanks, I don't buy such market

could today's seemingly "superintelligence" models run on 10-20 years old hardware? probably it works.

most human generated methods look the same. in fact, in SWE, we reward people for generating code that look & feel the same, they call it "work as a team".
