The Shift from ETL to ECL: Optimizing LLM Information Retrieval

Hi folks, Just wrote a piece about contextual optimization. As LLMs turn data processing into semantic processing, we believe ETL processes will turn into “ECL” (“Extract-Contextualize-Load”) processes. We explore what “ECL” could mean in the context of LLM information retrieval / RAG processes look like, and what the history of ETL can teach us about the development of the ECL industry, and the supporting tooling that would likely emerge. https://medium.com/enterprise-rag/improving-llm-information-retrieval-etl-to-ecl-extract-contextualize-load-12a4ac259faa
