⚡ Key Takeaways

  • Progress from word clouds to knowledge graphs adds real structure to NLP, turning visuals into queryable systems.
  • Co-occurrence graphs bridge simple stats to semantic power, exportable to tools like Neo4j.
  • Skeptical edge: This repackages old semantic web ideas, but LLMs make it practical now — graphs will verify AI hype.
