Retrieval augmented generation

is way easier to search then:

a script that runs a search and then the LLM takes the output of that and reformats it into an answer.

So if people want to look into it further and research what it is, instead of taking some persons 1 sentence explanation, they can.

Ironically trying to search for that phrase would work better in a RAG then a standard key word search.
