When GenAI meets Ancient Wisdom

Rejected

Session Description

In a world captivated by modern AI, what happens when cutting-edge technology is applied to one of the oldest epics known to humanity? This session explores the creation of the Mahabharata Chatbot—an intelligent assistant built using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and powered by Neo4j knowledge graphs and Google Gemini. By weaving together ancient Indian wisdom with the capabilities of Generative AI, the chatbot enables users to ask context-aware, nuanced questions about characters, events, and philosophies from the Mahabharata. Discover how this project blends structured data, semantic search, and LLMs to bring mythological storytelling into the digital age—offering not just answers, but insight.
