A two‑year effort brings LLMs and a retrieval‑augmented generation stack into production at AT&T with a claimed company‑wide assistant that cuts agent search time (one anecdote reports reduction from 15 minutes to 50 seconds) and improves satisfaction; pipeline deploys early 2023 with nationwide launch, hybrid vector/keyword search, chunking, reranking, hallucination controls, access controls and multilingual workarounds, and uses RAG pipeline in production since 2023 validated by 200 Qs human evaluation and tradeoffs on latency, cost and model choice.
