Most people I know will read this and have a blank stare. For me, this is kind of what keeps me going.

My degree is in History. I'm getting enrolled to work on my MA in History. I am also considering a side business that involves my passion for history, especially the American Civil War, and technology. These books you see here are just a sample of books I will have in a system called RAG. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system grounds Large Language Models (LLMs) in external data. Instead of relying solely on an AI's training data, RAG retrieves relevant documents (like company policies or recent files, or in this case, details in these books), appends them to your prompt, and directs the AI model to generate a highly accurate, fact-based response.

It will be a TON of work creating, but that is part of the enjoyment. Yep... I'm an old nerd. 🤣🤓
