🔥 Hot take: If your RAG breaks every 3 months, you don’t have a RAG problem, you have a fundamentals problem. This is exactly what is addressed in my book's latest chapter.
We’ve normalized building RAG on top of endless frameworks, only to:
-Fight dependency hell
-Rebuild pipelines after every minor update
-Debug abstractions we don’t actually understand
And then we wonder why our “production RAG” never survives.
That’s exactly why Chapter 6 of my book is all about building Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) from scratch
