Getting Started First off, here is the link to the chatbot!

I want to give credit where it’s due for the inspiration for this project. Last week at GraphSummit Minneapolis, I saw Michael Moore and Phani Dathar each give a presentation with demos of a retrieval-augmented generation, or RAG, system that queried a knowledge graph using natural language....

Getting Started So I’ll confess, I’m pretty late to the party here. ChatGPT and other generative AI models have taken the popular conciousness by storm while I’ve been sitting around trying to ignore the hype. I’ve seen previous advancements in generative audio and imagery models and shrugged at the relative lack of societally beneficial applications that surfaced.

Getting Started I am a big fan of Python and its powerful data analysis library, pandas. Today, I’d like to share a trick that’s save me tons of time when trying to one hot encode continuous numerical data in pandas. One hot encoding is a technique used to convert categorical variables into 1s and 0s in order to prepare data for machine learning algorithms. Normally, this is done using the get_dummies() function in pandas....
