Why Fixed-Size Chunking Fails in RAG: Interview Insights

The article explains that fixed-size chunking in Retrieval‑Augmented Generation ignores semantic boundaries, causing broken sentences, scattered topics, redundant or missing information, and noisy retrieval, and it evaluates overlap as a partial fix while presenting better alternatives such as recursive, semantic, structural, and agentic chunking along with practical production tips and future trends.
