GenAI can ingest an unstructured document and answer your natural language questions about it, but it isn’t yet as good at “talking” to structured data in a database, especially if the database models complex real-world relationships. This presentation uses stories, code and demonstrations to describe how to model hierarchical data in a graph database, how to use sentence embeddings and cosign similarity to enable people to chat with the graph database, and how different LLMs deliver different levels of accuracy and completeness.
