Large language models (LLMs) are already proven to be capable of generating human-like responses, but these responses can be enhanced to provide more accurate and relevant information. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is a technique that combines the strengths of LLMs and information retrieval systems to generate text that is both fluent and factually accurate.

In this lab, you will learn about Retrieval-Augmented Generation, its use cases, and common components. You will also learn how to implement RAG in a Python application.
