Generative AI is often marketed as a magical tool—just upload your data and let the model do the heavy lifting. But the reality is far from simple. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) doesn’t work without thoughtful preparation, clear strategy, and, most importantly, quality content.

In this episode, we dive deep into the critical role content plays in the success of AI systems like RAG. Join us as we speak with seasoned content strategists and AI industry experts who have been on the frontlines of managing and optimizing knowledge bases for AI use cases. We’ll explore why the future of AI isn’t about replacing writers—it’s about empowering content designers, technical writers, and knowledge architects to create structured, optimized, and actionable information that AI can truly work with.

If you’ve ever wondered why your AI project underdelivered or how to transform legacy content into a powerful AI resource, this episode is for you.
