EverydayGPT routes conversational QA between GPT and RAG by confidence

A new arXiv paper introduces EverydayGPT, a hybrid GPT-RAG conversational QA system with confidence-gated routing.

The system decides whether to answer directly or route through retrieval based on confidence. That can reduce unnecessary retrieval while still adding grounding when the model is less certain.

The approach is practical for conversational AI because production systems need to balance cost, latency, accuracy, and safety rather than always using the heaviest pipeline.
