Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide a method for building an artificial intelligence (AI) agent to respond to a user query. The method includes: receiving a user query; retrieving a set of documents that are ranked based on respective relevance scores of a first type to the user query; generating a core question that filters out irrelevant texts from the user query; generating a first summary of a first document from the set of documents and a first reasoning output explaining how the first summary addresses the core question; generating a relevance score of a second type and a corresponding reranking for the first document based at least in part on a combination of the core question and the first reasoning output; generating a response to the user query using one or more top-ranked documents according to generated rerankings of the set of documents.
