FAQ's

  • What is a vector database, and why is it important in agentic AI?

    A vector database stores data in a format that enables similarity search, which is crucial for AI agents to retrieve relevant information from large datasets efficiently. It powers capabilities like semantic search in RAG and memory in AI agents.

  • How does this course explain “memory” in AI agents?

    Memory in AI agents refers to the ability to store and recall past interactions or external knowledge. The course covers how vector databases and structured memory systems enable this behavior.

  • Will I receive a certificate upon completing the course?

    Yes, the course provides a certification upon completion.

  • What tools or platforms will be covered?

    You'll be introduced to vector databases (Weaviate) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and how they fit into the agentic AI ecosystem.

  • Does the course differentiate between types of memory (short-term vs long-term) in AI?

    Yes, it discusses the role of both short-term (session-based) and long-term memory (persistent vector storage) in building effective agentic systems.
