The difference between using Retrieval Augmented Generation and Agents?

Colin Henderson

A thought provoking piece from Shahab Anbarjafari • Professor, Author, Public Speaker I have been discussing with a few CTOs and CIOs, all sharp, no-nonsense leaders. The question they tossed at me sounded simple: “Shahab, what’s the difference between using Retrieval Augmented Generation (hashtag#RAG) and using hashtag#Agents?” But I could sense their real curiosity—like they were trying to understand a new dimension of AI that could define the future of their organizations. In that moment, I felt like I was back at the dawn of deep learning, where we realized that neural networks were more than just pattern-matchers. They could … Continue reading The difference between using Retrieval Augmented Generation and Agents?

My belief is that AI is stuck in single use siloed basic automation of current processes. The missing and next level will see collaboration between domains of digitisation, physcology, science, expontelly larger language models, and … Continue reading The Intelligence Age – Sam Altman
