Build RAG using Llama 3.1

links:none on file
slides:none on file

Step‑by‑step builds a working RAG pipeline that uses Llama 3.1 8B instant via Grok Cloud API key, converts a sample Paul Graham essay into embeddings with HuggingFace, chunks text (1000 token chunks with overlap), stores vectors in a VectorStoreIndex from LlamaIndex, and exposes a query engine that returns precise answers to factual and contextual questions. Demonstrates creating and revoking free API keys, shows the exact code flow, and the example Q&A works live.
