Leave it to the @aiDotEngineer team to come up with a puzzle that stumps frontier models. π€£ @swyx @liamcbride β at Belmont, CA
Dad brought home the @aiDotEngineer Speaker Dinner gift. ChatGPT was great at making Godot games for AI Engineer Kids Day, so I used it on the puzzle.

Use AI for coding, not thinking π€£
Great to be on the main stage at the 16th edition of #GIDS developersummit speaking on #GraphRAG, #ContextGraphs, and #Agent Memory. Had a lot of great questions and positive feedback on the #Matrix theme from the developer community here in Bangalore. ππ€π
A huge thanks to @saltmarchmedia for running this amazing community conference. π
Had a great interview with John Furrier at @mcpsummit in NYC. We covered a lot of topics on open source AI, Kubernetes and AI deployments, and #Graph technology as the Knowledge Layer for AI, but we got into something I am super passionate about, which is improving AI education in our schools.

I linked the video at the start of the segment, but I think a great quote for my message is:
"This isn't a failing of our students, this is a failing of our education system."
We are graduating a generation of computer scientists who are not fluent in AI tools and therefore don't have marketable skills for where the software industry is heading. The first introduction to coding should be prompting, not Python syntax. And students should be given token budgets, not textbooks.
Amazing audience and fully packed room at @aiDotEngineer London! Massive interest in #ContextGraphs for all the talks in our track. Also, amazing to see context graphs appear on the @Gartner_inc AI Hype Cycle. π β at London, England
They just published my talk with @mesirii on #GraphRAG from @aiDotEngineer World's Fair, which has become the authoritative event for the latest advances in AI technology from @OpenAI, @NVIDIAAI, and startups at the bleeding edge. @neo4j @swyx @Benghamine

Honored to receive the GraphRAG award for @Neo4j at the 2025 @DevNetwork_ AI TechAwards. It has been an amazing year to evangelize Graphs and AI technology, which improves the accuracy and explainability of GenAI systems. And also was excited to present on the next generation of #GraphAI with Agent Memory and MCP servers during my #AIDevSummit main stage talk this morning. β at Belmont, CA
The #GIDS conference in Bangalore was amazing. I appreciate the hundreds of attendees who came out to my #GraphRAG talk and who joined the AI in the Trenches panel with @markrichardssa, Archie Sharma (@zencoderai), @vanyaseth, and @MichaelCarducci.

And the 32' ladder to fix some attic vents. 3 stories up, so for extra safety I have a rope tether to an anchor on the roof. πͺπͺ’π¨ β at California, USA
Had a great weekend Brazilian BBQ with my good friend @brjavaman. There is no one I would trust more to grill amazing Picanha and also to hold the bottom of a 32' ladder for me. ππͺπͺπͺπ± β at San Mateo, CA
Amazing venue for our @Neo4j GraphSummit Amsterdam event with the Amstel river in the background. The expert Graph attendees beat my @OpenAI o3 reasoning agent challenge and Sudhir Hasbe demonstrated how to use #GraphRAG to augment LLMs to fix hallucinations in enterprise apps. β at Amsterdam, The Netherlands
I'm presenting on Knowledge Graphs and LLMs at @devnexus in early March. This is one of my favorite community run conferences on Java, AI, and Cloud to speak at. Use the code SPEAK40 to get 40% off. Hope to see you in Atlanta! β at GΓ€vle, Sverige
Very excited to have my JavaFX book updated for Java 21/23!
Says @steveonjava: "As an author I do my best work when I am in the flow of writing. I wouldn't underestimate how important research and preparation take, because once you get in a good rhythm this is the majority of the time spent writing." π #Java

Amazing community of 1400 developers at the @PortoTechHub Conference where I was honored to give the opening keynote. Got some great questions at the end of my talk about commercial use cases for GraphRAG, future convergence of property graphs and RDF, and sustainability of GenAI. Really great questions and I am glad my talk inspired some of these thought provoking topics.
Amazing brain trust in the room at our 2nd #GenAI Graph Gathering with a diverse set of thought leasers from startups like @Haystack_AI, #WhyHowAI, @ContextualAI, and @diffbot to enterprises like @Meta, @Microsoft, and @Google and even foundations like the #AIAlliance. This is great validation of the industry momentum behind #GraphRAG! β at San Francisco, CA

@Neo4j #NODES2024 is kicked off with an amazingly inciteful keynote by @bigdata on GenAI and Graph trends (spoiler: The GenAI hype curve is still trending up).
And here is a behind the scenes picture of my home video setup I used to stream the Welcome Keynote. I would have more monitors if I didn't need to save room for the lights and camera. π¨π₯οΈπ₯π₯οΈπ₯οΈπ¨ β at Belmont, CA
Had a great panel on event KPIs at @APIWorld and talked about the Engaged Developer strategy we are using at @neo4j to build deep technical advocates in deveoper and AI/ML communities. Big thanks to my copanelists, Melissa Cheng and Rinita Datta, and Rob Zazueta for the great moderation. β at Santa Clara, CA
Was great to share my expertise on Knowledge Graphs + LLMs at @genaisummit_ together with @VanjaJosifovski and @nzisakiilu. Got lots of great questions on sustainability of AI (hint: #GraphRAG is very efficient on token usage). β at Menlo Park, CA
