Search Results: The Virtual Agent simply posts these snippets (as Search Results) in a threaded reply to the request.
Generated Answers and Search Results: The Virtual Agent uses GPT to generate an answer using the most relevant snippet. Then, it posts this Generated Answer, along with the snippets (as Search Results) in a threaded reply to the request.
