In this 21-minute conference talk from GOTO State of the Art 2025, Spring Developer Advocate Josh Long demonstrates the capabilities of Spring AI (which reached General Availability in May 2025). Discover how Java developers can build production-ready AI applications while addressing common AI challenges including lack of direction, statelessness, inability to interact with external systems, and hallucination. Learn about powerful features like system prompts, chat memory, tool calling, and retrieval-augmented generation through a practical demonstration of building a complete dog adoption application with vector stores. See firsthand why Java can be a superior choice for AI workloads compared to other languages, and explore how Spring AI enables faster, more scalable, more efficient, more modular, more secure, and more intelligent systems and services.
