He'll show how to use Spring AI to build a chatbot with personality, covering: • RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) using a VectorStore • Why and how to mix different LLMs, including open source LLMs running locally, in the same application • How the Spring AI "advisor" architecture can be used to create clean, reusable components • How to add a toxicity guard and other crosscutting functionality • How and why to exchange structured data with LLMs • Best practices for building GenAI applications He'll share his code on GitHub so attendees can continue their own exploration.
