Why haven’t more manufacturers, warehouse operators, or healthcare providers jumped on this opportunity? They’re all using machine vision systems in various ways, often across multiple sites that are geographically distant from one another.

Have you ever asked an AI model a question and received an outdated or completely off-base response? I’ve been there too. The problem is that most AI models rely solely on their pre-trained knowledge, which becomes obsolete over time. This is where RAG can help: RAG is a hybrid AI technique that combines the advantages of retrieval systems and generative models. It bridges the gap by bringing in real-time information from external knowledge sources to improve the generation quality.

As part of Atlassian’s ongoing investment in security, we’re excited to introduce token rotation for access tokens in Bitbucket Cloud.
