What Is RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)?

A technique where a generative model retrieves relevant documents or passages before generating a response, grounding its answer in real content.

RAG reduces hallucination by anchoring generated text to retrieved sources. For publishers, this means being retrievable — technically accessible and well-structured — is a prerequisite to being cited.
