small models + a good application layer - are more than enough, good for routine business tasks.

the application Layer i.e having a good graph RAG & connecting it up together is the missing piece for most.

The model doesn't have to be smart if all it's doing is pushing a few different buttons.

I don't have to be an automotive engineer to start my car and put it in drive.

I mean - how specifically are you using knowledge graphs?
