Build a RAG System with Python and a Local LLM (No API Costs)
📰 Dev.to · SatStack
Learn to build a local RAG system with Python, avoiding cloud costs, and understand its significance in efficient text generation
Action Steps
- Install Ollama, a local LLM, using pip to enable text generation capabilities
- Configure ChromaDB, a vector database, to store and manage embeddings efficiently
- Build a RAG pipeline using Python, integrating Ollama and ChromaDB for retrieval-augmented generation
- Test the local RAG system with sample inputs to evaluate its performance and accuracy
- Optimize the system by fine-tuning the LLM and adjusting database parameters for better results
