LJC Meetup at Neo4j - Smarter Context, Safer Code: Graphs and AI in Action

We're excited to invite you to our next Meetup, co-hosted with neo4j!

Join fellow graph enthusiasts, Neo4j developers, and members of the Java community as we explore how graphs, knowledge graphs, and context engineering can unlock smarter applications and better answers.

We’ll also uncover how AI-generated code can be weaponized, exposing hidden vulnerabilities in the software we trust.

Whether you’re curious about building with graph-powered AI or safeguarding your projects from new threats, this meetup will give you insights you can put into practice.

Session 2: WhatsThat? Using graphs and AI to make sense of your friends WhatsApp group by Martin O'Hanlon

Communication, messaging, and memory are complicated. How are you supposed to keep up with it all? It's difficult for you to keep up with the constant stream of messages you get. How can we expect an LLM to do the same? Let's look at how we can use graphs and AI to summarise the complex streams of messages you get in that oddly titled WhatsApp group.

We look forward to connecting with the community to exchange ideas on graphs, tech, and AI - join the discussion!

This event is organised by RecWorks on behalf of the London Java Community.

The London Java Community is sponsored by Hazelcast, Neo4j, Redis, and Discover
