What is an LLM (Large Language Model)?

A Large Language Model (LLM) is the AI technology powering tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. It is trained on vast amounts of text data to generate human-like language and can assist with writing, research, coding, and many other tasks.

An AI Agent is software that takes multi-step actions autonomously. Not just answering questions, but booking meetings, sending emails, and running tasks without human intervention at each step.

RAG stands for Retrieval-Augmented Generation. It is an AI technique where the model searches a database or knowledge base before generating an answer, making responses more accurate and up-to-date than standalone language models.
