  4. Retrieval-Augmented Generation
    Retrieval-Augmented Generation
    Where the pipeline actually fails — chunking, retrieval, attribution and the numbers that hide it
    Hatem M.

    Chunk at 500 with 50 of overlap. Retrieve five. Add a reranker. Use hybrid search.Repeated everywhere, justified almost nowhere. This book measures them instead, on corpora built so that the correct answer follows fromhow they were made. Several results contradicted the advice: the hybrid combination lost inevery condition tested, neither reranker produced an effect above the noise floor, andattribution collapsed to 0.170 while retrieval was still reporting 0.920.
