Foojay.io, the Friends Of OpenJDK!

Let's have an AI Bingo and talk about ChatGPT, LLM, ML, RAG, MCP, GenAI, and more!
This is part 3 of the interviews recorded at the JCON conference in May. In the previous parts, you learned more about how to be a better Java developer and how Java has evolved and continues to evolve. Of course, Artificial Intelligence and large language models were hot topics at the conference.
This episode collects all the interviews on the AI topic. You will learn more about the different technologies we can use in our Java projects. We also checked with our guests to see how they compare Java to Python for AI-related development.
