#287 - From Smoothie King to AI Engineer
Description
Ryan is a current student at Parsity who build an app for his employer, Smoothie King, to suggest drinks in a chat interface using a powerful and lesser-known AI technology: RAG.
RAG stands for retrieval augmented generation. Basically, providing information (like smoothie recipes) to an AI model so it can return a highly specific response.
Ryan breaks down how he finds the time to build side projects like this and how he built this app.
