Deep dives
Understanding Agentic RAG Components
An agent consists of key components, including a language model, memory, and tools that enable it to process information. The memory can be classified as short-term or long-term and is crucial for keeping track of conversation history, while frameworks like Leta allow updates based on previous interactions. Different planning strategies, such as chain of thought queries or sub-questions, can enhance the decision-making process when an agent is responding to a user query. The capacity for function calling further differentiates agents, allowing them to interact with external databases and APIs to obtain or manipulate information dynamically.
