Bypassing the Multimodal Tax: Hybrid RAG, SQL RRF & UI Telemetry - Abed Matini, Ogilvy
This talk introduces a framework for building chatbots that bypass the limitations and costs associated with multimodal inputs and complex tool integrations. It proposes a hybrid Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) approach using SQL, Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF), and live telemetry to improve efficiency and accuracy. The core idea is to optimize data ingestion and retrieval through structured processing, enabling more effective querying of documents and reducing the computational burden on LLMs.
