Common hippopotamuses (hippos) are among the largest extant land mammals. They thus offer potential further insight into how giant body size on land influences locomotor patterns and abilities. Furthermore, as they have semi-aquatic habits and unusual morphology, they prompt important questions about how locomotion evolved in Hippopotamidae. However, basic information about how hippos move is limited and sometimes contradictory.

They enable efficient context retrieval or dynamic few-shot prompting to improve the factual accuracy of LLM-generated responses. When implementing a RAG system, start with a simple Naive RAG and iteratively improve the system: Refine the contextual information available to the LLM using multi-modal models to extract information from documents, optimize the chunk size, and pre-process chunks to filter out irr
