Feeling dumb:

Does this thing learn a graph (i.e. build nodes and edges) from more unstructured data like text in order to make relationships explicit?

Does it take a knowledge graph and use it as partial input to help learn some other function?

Or something else?

The latter. It does not infer graphs from unstructured data, it gives a set of backend agnostic APIs for constructing featurized graphs, message passing and pooling/aggregating (with gradients being handled by your framework of choice), and has some really nice helpers like performing softmax over certain node/edge types, while keeping everything performant.
