Better Embeddings Won’t Fix Missing Provenance in RAG
Explore how missing provenance can lead to inaccuracies in retrieval systems, despite better embeddings.
This article begins a series on building a retrieval system, highlighting how a retrieval system can deliver incorrect information without obvious signs. A case study reveals that even with accurate embeddings, outdated policies can mislead users. Engineers are encouraged to recognize and address these hidden issues in their systems to ensure reliability and accuracy.
