- There's also an auto-complete pop-up for easy navigation through existing VectorDB's by using a / forward slash at the beginning of your prompt.
❄️ Knowledge Base (More information)
- The knowledge base uses a basic similarity search at the moment, which retrieves relevant chunks quickly unlike agentic solutions. Although the results are still not up-to the mark.
- Further, on every RAG based prompt the response also has a sources table attached to show where the retrieved chunks are in the actual file.
