Abstract
A device may provide a prompt to a first machine learning model. The prompt may include at least one instruction to cause the first machine learning model to use at least first natural language input associated with a use of a conversational search system to rank data sources, generate a first search query and reasoning, and use the first search query and the reasoning to generate a second search query. The first search query may include data obtained from at least one of the ranked data sources. The reasoning may include an explanation of how the first machine learning model generated the first search query. A second machine learning model may synthesize a response determined via execution of the second search query. The synthesized response may be provided for presentation via the conversational search system.
