Does RAG Know When Retrieval Is Wrong? Diagnosing Context Compliance under Knowledge Conflict
Researchers introduce Context-Driven Decomposition (CDD), a diagnostic tool that reveals how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems blindly follow retrieved context even when it contradicts their underlying knowledge. Testing across multiple AI models shows CDD can improve accuracy to 64% on adversarial scenarios, though improvements don't consistently transfer across different model families, suggesting RAG systems resolve conflicts through fundamentally different mechanisms.
