Article automatically generated from technical news.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is the backbone of modern enterprise AI. While standard "Naive RAG"—chunking text, generating dense embeddings, and retrieving the top-K nearest neighbors via cosine similarity—works well for basic question-answering over clean documents, it quickly degrades in real-world environments. When confronted with visual charts, complex relational data, ambiguous queries, or multi-step reasoning, Naive RAG either fails to retrieve the correct context or ha
