Question Answering Models

Part of the AI Engineer Roadmap.

Summary

Models that extract or generate an answer to a question given a context passage — the core mechanism behind search-augmented and RAG-based assistants.

How to Learn This

  • 1Run a pretrained extractive QA model (e.g. fine-tuned BERT on SQuAD) on real passages.
  • 2Learn the difference between extractive QA and generative QA.
  • 3Understand how this connects directly to the retrieval-augmented generation you'll build later.
