I deleted line 84 because it's essentially a duplicate of the preceding sentence (but not as well phrased).

While AI-powered search offers unprecedented capabilities, implementing RAG workflows remains complex. RAG involves retrieving relevant context from a search engine and using it to generate responses with an LLM. OpenSearch aims to simplify this process with the Flow Framework, a no-code/low-code builder that provides an intuitive drag-and-drop interface for constructing AI-powered search workflows.

Additionally, OpenSearch is enhancing conversational search, allowing users to interact with search results in a natural, chat-like manner. Through contributions from Aryn.ai, the platform is evolving beyond static search queries, making search experiences more interactive and intuitive.

Line 58: Rather than being "chat-like", the interaction is literally "chat-based".

## The transition to generative-AI-powered search

Two pivotal events shaped OpenSearch's trajectory as a search engine: the generative AI revolution that began in 2022 and gained momentum in 2023, and OpenSearch's transition to the Linux Foundation in 2024, advancing a community-led innovation model. These milestones catalyzed OpenSearch's transformation from a text-based search engine into an AI-driven platform.

Line 26: The text I deleted doesn't substantially add value and introduces too many "and" phrases.
