Building Question Answering Systems and Conversational Interfaces

In this chapter, we will delve into the realm of question answering (QA) and conversational interfaces, harnessing the power of Amazon Bedrock. The chapter begins with unveiling real-world use cases of QA with Amazon Bedrock, demonstrating the practical applications and benefits of this technology. Moving forward, the chapter will cover architectural patterns for QA on both small and large documents, providing a solid foundation to understand the underlying mechanics. Additionally, the concept of conversation memory will be explained, allowing for the storage and utilization of chat history, thereby enabling more contextually aware and coherent conversations.

The chapter will also dive into the concept of embeddings and their significance within the architectural flow of QA systems. Furthermore, we will learn about prompt engineering techniques for chatbots, equipping you with the skills to craft effective prompts...
