DRM-free PDF version + access to Packt's next-gen Reader

Key Features

Implement RAG and knowledge graphs for advanced problem-solving
Leverage innovative approaches like LangChain to create real-world intelligent systems
Integrate large language models, graph databases, and tool use for next-gen AI solutions

Book DescriptionThis book addresses the challenge of building AI that not only generates text but also grounds its responses in real data and takes action. Authored by AI specialists with expertise in drug discovery and systems optimization, this guide empowers you to leverage retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), knowledge graphs, and agent-based architectures to engineer truly intelligent behavior. By combining large language models (LLMs) with up-to-date information retrieval and structured knowledge, you'll create AI agents capable of deeper reasoning and more reliable problem-solving.
Inside, you'll find a practical roadmap from concept to implementation. You’ll discover how to connect language models with external data via RAG pipelines for increasing factual accuracy and incorporate knowledge graphs for context-rich reasoning. The chapters will help you build and orchestrate autonomous agents that combine planning, tool use, and knowledge retrieval to achieve complex goals. Concrete Python examples and real-world case studies reinforce each concept and show how the techniques fit together.

By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build intelligent AI agents that reason, retrieve, and interact dynamically, empowering you to deploy powerful AI solutions across industries.
