Within Reason: A survey of reasoning and inference models and techniques for generative AI solutionsMichael Iantosca Senior Director of Knowledge Platforms and EngineeringAvalara Inc.Disclaimer: This article is a hybrid of my own writing and research and also includes content and concepts derived from generative AI that I’ve validated using additional sources. I am no expert on reasoning and inference, though I did enjoy the subject matter to some degree in my college philosophy and psychology classes. I assembled the material out of my own need to better understand the depth and breadth of the topic and better understand how it might apply to our own generative AI RAG models model, such as our Document Object Graph RAG Model described in great detail at https://medium.com/@nc_mike/document-object-model-graph-rag-af8ae452b0b6.
