What it is

Build an AI application using code with Spring-projects' Spring-AI.

Real use case example

"A founder uses Spring-AI to automate customer onboarding by writing a Java script that integrates with their Notion database and a Mailgun email service. They write and deploy the code, configure Spring-AI to watch their Notion database, and receive an email notification whenever a new customer signs up."

When to use it
  • •Building a new AI-powered application with a Java-based backend
  • •Integrating machine learning models into an existing Spring-based application
  • •Developing a real-time data processing pipeline with AI-driven insights
Ready-to-paste prompt
Create a simple AI-powered chatbot by implementing the `AIModel` interface and using the `@EnableAI` annotation, then test it using the `curl` command: `curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"input": "Hello, how are you?"}' http://localhost:8080/chat`
Heads up: Ensure you have Java 11 or later installed, as Spring-AI requires a minimum of Java 11 to function correctly
