Deconstructing AI: from Semantic Search to LLMs & RAG
In this two-part presentation, “Deconstructing AI: from Semantic Search to LLMs & RAG,” we trace the evolution of modern AI by exploring semantic search as a foundation for machine learning, the architecture and inner workings of Large Language Models (LLMs), and the powerful technique of Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) — distilling over a year of intensive learning into two focused one-hour sessions originally delivered to the Leidos team at the Social Security Administration (SSA). Presentation slides are included.
