A Generative AI Engineer is tasked with improving the RAG quality by addressing its inflammatory outputs. Which action would be most effective in mitigating the problem of offensive text outputs?

The correct answer is D. Curate upstream data properly that includes manual review before it is fed into the RAG system. Offensive or inflammatory outputs in a RAG system most commonly originate from toxic content present in the upstream data sources that get retrieved and passed as context to the LLM. The most effective mitigation is therefore to curate and manually review data before ingestion…

Explanation

Offensive or inflammatory outputs in a RAG system most commonly originate from toxic content present in the upstream data sources that get retrieved and passed as context to the LLM. The most effective mitigation is therefore to curate and manually review data before ingestion, preventing harmful content from ever entering the knowledge base. Option A (more frequent updates) doesn't address data quality. Option B (informing users) is a disclosure, not a fix. Option C (restricting access) controls who queries the system but does nothing about the content of the outputs. Cleaning the source data at ingestion time is the root-cause solution.
