You’re already using RAG. You just don’t know it yet. Every time you upload a doc to ChatGPT and ask a question — that’s RAG in action. RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is the not-so-secret engine behind most of today’s useful AI tools. It’s what makes LLMs smart about your stuff, not just the internet. Most execs haven’t heard of it. Most teams haven’t mastered it. And most vendors… definitely aren’t explaining it. Our founder Edmundo Ortega breaks it down: • What RAG actually does (without the buzzwords) • Why it’s everywhere right now • And how to build with it — the right way If you’re working on AI products, skip the hype. Learn the architecture. Link in comments 👇 __________________________ We're Machine & Partners, a boutique AI consultancy. 📩 Sign up for our newsletter Release Notes https://lnkd.in/gahMW4An

Most AI projects don’t fail because the tech doesn’t work. Why? They fail because the strategy didn’t. A lot of execs greenlight AI projects, thinking ROI will… emerge. But real returns don’t come from chasing hype. They come from asking better questions before you build: • Are we solving a business problem or just playing with a toy? • Do we actually have the data, expertise, and workflows to make this work? • How will we know if it’s working? In this article by our founder Edmundo Ortega, we share the core diagnostic we use with clients to figure out what’s worth building — and what’s likely to stall. If your team is investing in AI but struggling to measure the impact, this one’s worth a read. Link in comments 👇

Are we really on the brink of firing all our coders? Some Silicon Valley chatter says so...... but the smart ones say NO WAY. In our Deep Thoughts article, our founder Edmundo Ortega argues that AI won’t replace developers; it’ll supercharge them. We pay developers to think, design, and solve problems—and AI simply makes that thinking faster and more powerful. Curious why developers are more indispensable than ever?

Imagine teaching an AI how to parse a 150-page document.... and then watching it build the rest of its own parsing “extractors” without you writing a single line. That’s precisely what happened on one of our projects: we showed the AI a handful of extractors, and it not only generated the rest but even climbed its own performance hill over time. Now our development team is training an AI to optimize the AI. If you think AI is just a tool, think again. It’s becoming its own engineer.

AI-transformation common mistake: trying to copy your workflow Many AI projects start by recreating the current process with a model. It feels safe. It also caps the upside. In this short clip, our founder, Edmundo Ortega, explains why thinking models change the game. When AI can think, steps compress. Sometimes the old workflow disappears and a better one emerges. Design around the outcome, not the legacy process.
