Hey everyone,


I’ve collected around 2000+ articles related to business and trade, and I want to leverage AI to truly digest them and then act like a teacher — first read and understand the material, then give me structured insights, summarize methodology, and guide me with actionable strategies.


What I’d like to achieve:


  1. Ingest all the articles so the AI has access to them.
  2. Retain/remember the content for future use (not just one-time context).
  3. Summarize methodology across the whole dataset.
  4. Provide business guidance based on that knowledge.

I know context windows are limited, so I assume the solution may involve:


  • RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) with chunking and embeddings
  • Vector databases like Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant, or Chroma
  • Maybe even fine-tuning a model if needed

Questions for those who’ve tried something similar:


  • What’s the best practical stack to handle this at scale?
  • How do you manage memory and long-term use?
  • Any pitfalls to avoid (cost, quality, duplication, speed)?

Would love to hear any hands-on tips, frameworks, or case studies from people who’ve built large-scale ingestion + summarization setups.


Thanks in advance!
 
I do not suggest fine tuning since it is not an optimal investment and most of the time completely unnecessary.
First analyze the data you have and how it relates to your end goal.

1. You basically want to make a coach/teacher.

2. You have a size-able amount of data, but is it all high quality and unique? Probably not.



First step is to cut down the amount of data without losing quality.
Extract lessons/wisdom from each article one by one.
Then get rid of duplicates by either simply removing them or by merging them.

Then I would suggest for this use case to use agentic rag architecture because context matters A LOT here.

Your two biggest levers are the llm you choose and the system prompt. Experiment a lot with these and see if you can get closer to your ideal. While experimenting you can save the prompts and answers that were optimal so you can use those if you deem it necessary to fine tune in the future.
