AI Trenches: Coding, Creativity, and Chaos

  • Building a RAG: Part II

    A First Cut RAG for Notes and Coding: Prioritizing What Matters Most Following up on my previous post about the foundational questions and components necessary to build a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system, I’d like to dive deeper into my personal experience creating a RAG for managing notes and coding tasks at work. Building a RAG…

  • Exploring Generative AI to Build an Application

    This is my second post on generative AI. Today, I want to share my experience of using it to build a fully functional application—an exciting journey into leveraging AI to create something tangible. The Idea: A RAG for Work Notes It all began with my interest in creating a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system for my…
