What Is RAG? Retrieval-Augmented Generation, Plainly
RAG, or retrieval-augmented generation, means a chatbot first finds the passages that match a question, then writes its answer from them instead of from general knowledge. On a website it is what lets answers come from your own pages. TailGPT uses it with strict rules: answer only from your pages, and say so when nothing matches.
