What would you like to see?

Would be nice to go beyond traditional RAG and enhance agent capabilities by implementing Lightrag or RAG 2.0

My experience with LightRAG is that while the methodology seems to be promising, the code the developers released isn't really ready for production environments. It is very buggy.

RAG "2.0" is not open source, nor is it publicly available for testing. Every VC company makes a big announcement with a flashy demo, and then there's just a waitlist. It's been 283 days since Contextual announced "2.0", and as far as I know, there hasn't been any independent testing of their methodology.

That makes sense and is consistent with our experience with LightRAG. Thanks for the clarification.

This also applies to GraphRag, HippoRag, and the 400 other Rag augmentations that are niche or too nascent to be useful over a better or improved implementation on base RAG + a simple reranker.

Can we use LightRAG as of today's date? the ecosystem there has matured quite a lot.
