Generative AI
A branch of artiﬁcial intelligence that
focuses on creating models and
algorithms capable of generating new
and original content.
ChatGPT is a well known example of a
generative AI.
A type of Generative AI that is trained on
vast amounts of content.
Currently seen as the “GenAI for
language/text”.
ChatGPT is a Large Language Model.

innovation

Combine the power of LLM with the stored data of
your knowledge graph for more accurate responses
and to reduce hallucinations.
Improve Accuracy

LLMs can help generate more accurate responses by considering the connections
and dependencies within the graph and mapping new links as new data is identiﬁed.
Flexible schema means it is
easy to grow your knowledge
base whenever new
information is available
Relationships are data that is
used to return explicit results
Accuracy
Vector search adds implicit
results showcasing similar
responses

Knowledge retrieval with Neo4j
CALL db.index.vector.queryNodes('products', 5, $embedding)
CALL apoc.ml.openai.embedding([$question], $apiKey)
CALL apoc.ml.openai.chat([{role:'system', content: $system},
{role:'user', content: $user}], $apiKey)

Add a layer of context
over your LLM for
accuracy and
specificity
Neo4j knowledge graphs supply the LLM with information about your company so answers
are specific to your business, giving more context for more accurate responses.
Specificity

Ensure your grounding-partner meets security,
scalability, and regulatory requirements so you
can deploy enterprise-wide with conﬁdence.
Deploy with Conﬁdence

Deﬁne policies by role or identity
Integrates with identity and access
management provider with SSO
LLM retrieves and returns information governed by your enterprise security and
access control policies-down to the node level.
Security & Privacy
Build constraints on nodes, labels,
relationships, properties, speciﬁc
parts of the graph, and even
traversal depth

Easily scale with autonomous
clustering
Reliability
Neo4j knowledge graphs scale and are battle-tested to thousands of concurrent users,
get answers quickly with incredibly fast query speeds.
Incredibly fast traversals with index
free adjacency

Add metadata or annotations
Map relationships between
search results and data source
nodes
Represent data sources as nodes
Verify the enriched responses from your LLM because each piece of information is
linked to its sources and origins.
Explainability

Adopt innovation and iterate as your LLM

across all cloud and data providers.

Support

Better predictions with data you already have
● Traditional ML ignore network structure because it’s difﬁcult to extract
● Add graphy data to existing ML pipelines to increase accuracy, or
● Graphs use relationships to unlock otherwise unattainable predictions

Vector index & search:
Index nodes on ﬂoat or double array properties.
Based on Lucene which uses Hierarchical Navigable Small-World graphs (HNSW).
Created and queried using procedures.

Creation
CALL db.index.vector.createNodeIndex(
)
indexName, // Name of the index to create (STRING)
label, // Label of nodes to index (STRING)
propertyKey, // Property key to index (STRING)
dimensions, // Dimensionality of vectors to index (INTEGER)
similarityFunction // “EUCLIDEAN” or “COSINE”
(case-insensitive STRING)

Querying
CALL db.index.vector.queryNodes(
)
indexName, // Name of the index to query (STRING)
k, // Number of neighbors to query for (INTEGER)
vector // Query vector whose neighbors we are searching for
(LIST<FLOAT>)

Writing vector efﬁciently
CALL db.create.setVectorProperty(
)
node, // Nodes to add the property to (NODE)
propertyKey, // Property key to write to (STRING)
vector, // Property value to write (LIST<FLOAT>)
