Here's the 3rd episode of my #Java and #AI series with #Quarkus & #LangChain4j 💥 ! It talks about keeping memory of subsequent and parallel calls to AI Models. Want to find out what LLMs think is the best enterprise programming language and stack? You'll just have to watch 😁 youtu.be/at9vlItauKU?...

I had the opportunity to talk about #AgenticAI patterns at #Devoxx today with the great @MarioFusco (who still doesn't have a bsky account 😄). Happy to see great feedback about both the talk and the cool stuff being built in @langchain4j.dev.

Another day @devoxx.com, another session about agentic systems, this time by the langchain4j heroes @kevindubois.com and Mario Fusco.

Always good to start with a definition, to get everyone on the same page.

And now into the code 🎉.

Frustrated that your AI assistant doesn't "get it"?

Maybe you're not giving it a command, you're delegating a task. The secret is to stop prompting and start mentoring.

This simple playbook I'm using is helping me to get better results from #AI:
