La réponse dans ce court extrait, tiré de sa conférence “Bring the Action: Using GraalVM in Production” : www.youtube.com/watch?v=pACF...

Fast AI Search with GraalVM, Spring Boot, and Oracle Database In this blog post we’ll build a semantic search demo with GraalVM, Spring Boot, and Oracle Database

AI vector search enables you to find rows based on meaning

e.g.

“Toys for big dogs” can match “Heavy Duty Rope for Large Dog Breeds”

@alina-yurenko.bsky.social shows how to build this with GraalVM, Spring Boot, and Oracle AI Database

People that complain GraalVM native builds are slow still live in the stone age 😅
Obviously native builds will remain slower, but the improvements the Graal team made the past years on the compiler (and resource usage!) are seriously impressive 👍

Google Chrome must have some pretty interesting heuristics. Like on a machine full on in English it shows me AI search results in German, and "maybe you were looking for..." in Ukrainian 😄
