# Building Advanced Knowledge Agents

> Slide deck on building agentic RAG and knowledge management systems.

A comprehensive presentation by Jerry Liu (LlamaIndex) for the 'Systematically Improving RAG Applications' course. It details architectures for moving beyond standard retrieval to event-driven, agentic knowledge workflows. Key topics include data indexing pipelines, agent orchestration, and architectures for complex tasks like document research and report generation.
