Production ready RAG: improve re-ranking

Improve Re-ranking for better results.

With Elasticsearch as vector store in Conversational Search for 70 books, Elasticsearch gets confused/overwhelmed, and could not answer a question of “What is XYZ?“, but removing the trailing “?” results in a proper answer.

Conversational search should support hybrid search with keyword search.

    Thank you for your input, you refer to conversational search so I assume AI assistants, have you tried our Knowledge feature of agents?

    Does it behaves better or the same?

    This is where we are investing and recommend our customers/partners to go to asap, let us know if there is any reason preventing you to do so.
