Abstract
A user provides a question to be answered from detailed, dense or otherwise complex documents to a processing system that converts the question to a structured query language query and generates an embedding from the question, augmented by temporal data, synopses, themes, or other relevant information or data. The embedding is compared to embeddings generated from documents of a knowledge base to identify documents that are relevant to the question, and to rank such documents for their relevance. Highly ranking documents are combined with the query and provided to a language model that returns an answer to the question. A source for the answer is identified in at least one of the documents. The answer and the identified documents are presented to the user.
