AI Tinkerers - Paris Meetup on June 26th - Google Cloud AI
⚡ Why You Shouldn’t Miss This
Welcome to the next Paris edition of AI Tinkerers—where every attendee ships code and every talk dissects the guts of modern AI systems. On Thursday, June 26 from 19h00–22h00, we’re teaming up with Google Cloud AI and Theodo for a hands-on look at agents, graph workflows, and long-context LLMs that quietly power the tools you use every day.

Capacity is capped at 50 builders and our last three Paris meetups filled in quickly, so lock your spot now and—if you have something spicy—submit a demo while you’re at it.
Google Cloud accelerates every organization’s ability to digitally transform its business and industry.

🎤 Talks & Live Demos
Intelligent Agents, the New Frontier of LLMs
Guillaume Laforge – Developer Advocate, Google
Discover how Gemini-powered agents change application architecture, decision orchestration, and user experiences.
Building Knowledge Graphs with Gemini
Laurent Picard – Developer Relations Engineer, Google Cloud
Large language models have transformed natural language problem-solving. However, LLMs often have limitations regarding the inputs they can process. Let’s see how we can extract insights from extensive text inputs (up to 1M tokens) and automatically construct knowledge graphs.
From Monolith to Modular: Mapping 500 k LoC with AI & Graphs
Thomas Walter – Group Partner Healthtech & CTO, Theodo France
See how AST-parsing + GenAIScript + Neo4j converted days of code archaeology into a one-hour graph.
GraphRAG Architecture
Laurent Tandé – Senior Solution Engineer, Neo4j
Understand how to scale Retrieval-Augmented Generation with knowledge graph backends and graph reasoning to improve precision and transparency of LLM pipelines.
Compar:IA – Chatbot Arena Dataset
