As a developer, you're trained to think in rows and tables. But what if that's the exact reason you're missing the most powerful connections in your data? There's a fundamental "Graph Problem" hiding in plain sight in almost every application, and once you see it, you'll wonder how you ever missed it.

In this episode, we reveal this "obvious" secret and show you how to leverage it to build smarter, more accurate, and context-aware AI.

In this episode/video, we cover:

• ​The "Graph Problem" explained: Why you have more graph problems than you think.
• ​Why basic RAG isn't enough, and how Graph RAG provides the context your AI is missing.
• ​How to uncover the hidden relationships in your unstructured data and build a knowledge graph.
• ​Real-world examples (from Amazon to your own notes) that reveal the graph structure all around you.
• ​The #1 reason knowledge graph projects fail and how to avoid it.

This conversation is for any developer who feels their projects are hitting a wall. If you're ready for the "aha!" moment that will change how you look at data forever, this episode is for you.
