Final month of #AERO - and we're not slowing down! Run GPU-accelerated LLMs in pure Java from a @quarkus.io #Langchain4j apps. No Python. No CUDA. Just #Java with @tornadovm.org. A collab between @manchester.ac.uk & Red Hat! 🔗 aero-project.eu/posts/runnin... #Java #LLM #AI #LLM #GPU #opensource

Last week I was in Sofia for @jprimeconf.bsky.social! I presented our latest work on @tornadovm.org and #GPULlama3 for seamless #GPU acceleration of local #AI inference with @quarkus.io and @langchain4j.dev. Thanks to organizers, speakers, attendees & photographers for a great event. #opensource

A well presented overview on getting faster startup, warmup, memory footprint in #Java along with a comparison of all existing solutions delivered by @hansolo.eu at #jprime2026

Really interesting talk at #jPrime2026 from @kevindubois.com on @quarkus.io @langchain4j.dev and how to create #AI infused applications. I have kept a special note on dynamic model selection and non-AI agents for more deterministic tasks. #Java #AI

Great start in #jPrime2026, featuring a playful way of learning modern #Java by @piotrprz.bsky.social and @maritvandijk.bsky.social!
