Researchers are exploring new methods to control large language model outputs, moving beyond simple text generation. One approach proposes a "Typed Answer Contract" for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems, where each field in a structured schema acts as a question to the model. This contract aims to prevent hallucinations by making all answers checkable, a significant step for enterprise document intelligence applications stop returning text. Concurrently, efforts are underway to empower users to build and deploy their own LLMs, though significant technical hurdles remain, the potential for customized models is viewed optimistically setting up your own.
