Q: What are limits of document retrieval mode?

I'm trying to understand how useful is the 60GB document storage.
My use case would be to upload relevant technical books and documentations of complex computer systems to use as knowledge base. Let's say this results in a 5GB folder with thousands of pdf and md files.
Can I use Afforai to search in all of these documents at the same time? Or I can only select a few documents to use at once?
What are the limits of the document retrieval mode?

A: Happy Cyber Monday,

Our Document Retrieval mode in the Afforai Al research assistant, with this you can connect your library to serve as a knowledge base to help the Al generate the answers. And give visual data sources and citations where the Al got the information from. This Al mode would actually read the content of the scholar articles you upload to Afforai. You can connect as many documents as you want, we have many users connect their entire folder, or even entire library. Note that exceeding the context window of the text characters will increase chances of AI hallucinations.

Regarding AI hallucination, it is something we are constantly working on and we have put a lot of information in the User Guide on how to reduce hallucination on the user side. Keep in mind, AI and LLMs have inherent limitations, that even billion dollar companies are working on to improve, including Microsoft, Google, OpenAI, etc. So, we do our best and do what we can in Afforai.

Tier 1 gets access to GPT3.5, GPTo Mini, and Claude Haiku. Tier 2 and Tier 3 users get access the previous models and also GPT4, GPT40, Claude 3.5 Sonnet. AI models like Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT4o have the biggest context window which serves most of our users needs. Afforai supports and offers these Al models natively inside Afforai. You can use these models with no limit.
