The knowledge graph era is reborn with LLMs

For a decade, knowledge graphs were an academic idea with few real use cases, held back by the cost of building and maintaining the schema. LLMs have changed that equation: they now extract entities automatically and help anchor answers, audit reasoning, and support agents without hallucinating.
