The Graph Layer Behind NASA’s Breakthroughs | Michael Hunger
Manage episode 493310236 series 3585084
Michael Hunger of Neo4j, joins Simon Maple to unpack how graph databases inject structure, intent, and traceability into modern AI systems.
On the docket:
- why relationships in data encode intent
- the black-box problem in vector based RAG
- why devs should build their own MCP server
