7 ways RAG is changing work

  1. Customer support that doesn't suck—accurate answers from real docs
  2. Content creation that knows things—fast research without browser tabs
  3. Company knowledge that's findable—search in plain English across all tools
  4. Research that connects dots—synthesize insights across papers
  5. People & HR that helps—instant answers about policies and benefits
  6. Engineering that scales—accessible code knowledge across the org
  7. Sales intelligence that converts—deep customer insights contextually

Read the full article for detailed examples and see why RAG-powered knowledge is the future.
