Description:

Embark on a data-driven journey through the Mahabharata! This session explores a Python-built chatbot that leverages the power of graph databases, chatbots, and Gen-AI to unlock the epic's intricate relationships in a novel way.

This session delves into a unique project that utilizes the power of graph databases, chatbots, and AI to unlock a fresh perspective on the Mahabharata. We'll explore how:

• Python scripts and Neo4j Python driver were used to fetch a comprehensive graph of characters and their relationships within the epic, leveraging the capabilities of Neo4j.
• Gradio for Chatbot Development: We'll explore the utilization of Gradio, a Python web framework, to build a user-friendly chatbot interface. This interface allows users to interact with the Neo4j graph through natural language queries.
• Unlocking Cypher with Gemini: We'll discuss the innovative integration of Google's Gemini API. This large language model acts as a bridge, translating natural language user queries into efficient Cypher queries, the language for interacting with Neo4j. This empowers users with a more intuitive way to explore the graph.

Benefits for Attendees:

• Learn practical techniques for graph database modeling with Python and Neo4j.
• Gain hands-on experience building a chatbot using Gradio.
• Discover the potential of Gen-AI for interactive storytelling and data exploration with Gemini.
• Deepen their understanding of the Mahabharata through a novel lens.

Join me on this exciting journey as I explore the power of Python, graph databases, and Gen-AI to unlock the hidden depths of the Mahabharata!
