Technology to connect people and knowledge

The ability to centralize the knowledge found in the distributed tools, repositories, and databases for KM practitioners is the defining characteristic of today's technologies. Generative machine learning models not only play pivotal roles in managing that knowledge to make it meaningful to users, but also in enabling them to interface with it on-demand, for ad-hoc use cases.

KMWorld Trend-Setting Products of 2024

It's clear from the increase in new and exciting products designed for KM practitioners that KM is gaining in importance within organizations and being recognized as critical to the success of enterprises. The ability of technology to streamline information flows, summarize lengthy documents, surface hidden information from existing data, and make search results relevant and actionable gives companies a competitive advantage.

Lexsoft T3 GenAI Knowledge Management

T3 GenAI applies AI to automatically extract relevant information, create abstracts, and accurately mine the metadata to classify them in the KM system. This removes the need for KM professionals to manually appraise lawyers' documents or ask questions to identify, curate, and classify the knowledge documents.

Solving PDF form challenges and boosting workflow automation

What organizations that depend on dynamic documents really need are solutions that work seamlessly across all platforms. This way, organizations can eliminate compatibility issues and reduce most—if not all—of the costs that are associated with restricted formats.

Integration impasse: Why organizations can’t wait for data integration before deploying AI

The need for comprehensive data management will always be important, and there are many other benefits of digital transformation, but CIOs don't need to delay GenAI projects until the completion of a giant data centralization effort. By adopting a more flexible approach that incorporates GenAI and next-generation BI tools, businesses can navigate the complexities of modern data ecosystems while driving innovation and maintaining a competitive edge in an AI-driven world.

The transformative role of AI in the next generation of records management

While there are many ways AI will disrupt and advance the records management process, these four key applications will make the biggest impact: automating document classification and tagging, records retention and data hygiene, leveraging natural language processing for record analysis and predictive analytics for records management.

KM and AI: Experts look at what lies ahead for 2024

AI and dreams of its potential rocked this past year as companies moved quickly to embed and offer their own version of chat assistants, predictive and generative AI, and more

Inefficient at the speed of light

While process mining started years ago as a mainly data-driven exercise, its stated goal is to be knowledge-driven. Given KM's multidisciplinary scope, we can play a major role in achieving that goal. Any process, no matter how simple, has the potential to reach across an entire business ecosystem, including all stakeholders. This seems like a perfect match for collaborative workflow, AI/ML, knowledge graphs, human sensemaking, and many of the other arrows in our KM quiver.

The rise and potential fall of the citizen developer

The citizen developer movement was heralded as a revolution. Like most revolutions, things have sometimes gone differently than planned. The logic is sound, empowering those who know the business best to build the tools and systems needed to do their job. Ah, if only things were that simple …

The end of tech glory days

The tech industry's glory days may be fading a little, but this is not a time for despair. It's an opportunity for renewal. By shifting to a needs-driven approach, the industry can ensure its relevance in a rapidly changing landscape.

The third place of knowledge management

The third place I alluded to goes far beyond mechanistic KM or curated knowledge and takes us into the actual world of tacit knowledge. Here, knowledge comes from and often remains as personal experience, impressions, and intuition; it's undocumented and often hidden and elusive.
