The Backbone of AI: Why Retrieval Matters More Than Ever
Search was built for human speed: deliver a shortlist of ranked ordered results, let the user scan, interpret, and decide the best fit. AI operates at machine speed, enabling multi-step retrievals, vast context windows, and delivering answers in natural language, but without relying on human guidance for results. Users expect GenAI not just to return accurate results, but to do the heavy-lifting: answer a question, summarize research, or even solve a problem.
That shift demands a new foundation to deliver better answers, lower latency, and controlled costs at production scale.
