Faithfulness

A RAG pipeline just shipped for internal docs. How would the team know if retrieval is actually helping?

A colleague claims their model is 'grounded' because it cites sources. Explain why citation presence alone does not prove factual grounding.

Describe a concrete, production runnable mechanism to detect hallucinations in a RAG answer (claims unsupported by the retrieved chunks), as the answer is generated or just after.

Match each RAGAS metric to what it specifically measures about a RAG pipeline.
