Lukka from Pinecone explains chunking: breaking large documents into smaller, focused pieces that an LLM or AI agent can actually use as context. Think of a book. It’s already divided into chapters, but for an LLM, even a chapter is often too much context at once. Chunking breaks that information down into bite-sized pieces, so when someone asks a question, the most relevant chunk is retrieved and sent to the LLM.
