In this session, we’ll explore how to infuse AI capabilites into Java applications, using LangChain4j and its Quarkus integration. We’ll start from the Quarkus DevUI where you can try out AI models even before writing any code. Then we’ll explore LangChain4j features such as prompting, chaining, and preserving state; agents and function-calling; enriching your AI model’s knowledge with your own documents using retrieval augmented generation (RAG); and discovering ways to run (and train) models locally using tools like Ollama and/or Podman AI Lab. In addition, we’ll take a look at observability and fault tolerance of the AI integration and compile the app to a native binary.

What happens when Java meets Generative AI? In this high-energy session, Holly Cummins and George Andrianakis show how developers can use LangChain4j and Quarkus to integrate large language models (LLMs) directly into Java applications — with type safety, prompt engineering, state handling, and tool orchestration baked in. From writing code to sending AI-generated poems by email, this talk has it all.
A discussion of building global success and how artificial intelligence is transforming the world.
