We'll explore the use of nodes, specifically the 'web search node' and 'rewrite query', and how they perform actions within your workflow. You'll also learn to avoid confusion between states and nodes in your RAG system.
The lecture will then move on to the practical steps of building your workflow, adding nodes, constructing the graph, and finally compiling your application. You'll get hands-on experience with the LlamaIndex and other RAG techniques and understand how they fit into the larger picture of retrieval-augmented generation.
This lecture will guide you through defining nodes and building a graph using the LangGraph and LlamaIndex tools. You'll learn how to use the AddNode method, set an entry point, and add edges to your workflow. We'll also cover creating documents, rewriting queries, and searching the web using the WebSearchNode.
You'll gain hands-on experience with the RAG system, a key component of AI agent and retriever technologies. Based on GradeDocuments' evaluation, we'll also explore the use of conditional edges and how to decide when to search the web.
The lecture concludes with a detailed walkthrough of compiling the workflow and generating an answer.
This lecture will guide you through creating an AI agent that can handle complex queries, retrieve relevant documents, and generate responses.
You'll learn how to construct a workflow in LangGraph, a powerful tool for building AI systems, and how to use LlamaIndex for document retrieval.
