The future of knowledge management: Talking to documents with generative AI

The fundamental pillars of KM—taxonomies, domain-specific data models, knowledge extraction, search, and text analytics—are as pertinent today as they ever were. Now, generative AI has rendered these constructs much more accessible to the enterprise. Its long-standing utility will be determined by surmounting models' tendencies to generate contrived, inaccurate responses while embedding them into core KM processes.

KM leverages data mesh

An underlying premise of data mesh is that business units should be able to control their own data and interact with one another by sharing data.

Decoding the data deluge; use ECM to navigate the unstructured content labyrinth

Obtaining contextual knowledge about how users create and interact with unstructured data is an essential business practice to plan for data storms effectively. Enterprises need to understand that it's not enough to know these user activities but also must take remediation action when necessary.

Avoiding the wrath of illegal data

To mitigate the risks associated with illegal data, organizations need to implement data governance policies and procedures to ensure that all data is properly documented, stored, and maintained.

It’s not about knowledge, it’s about action

Organizations cannot continue to digitally hoard knowledge. Investments in knowledge technology have to pay and provide an ROI. It all starts by making different decisions.

Knowledge and training: Peanut butter and jelly for the customer contact center toast

Modern knowledge management and training are perfect complements to each other—the peanut butter and jelly for your breakfast toast.

Get your game on: KM skills needed for reliable use of LLMs

There is no questioning that generative AI is here to stay, but its use in mission-critical work has some way to go before it can be trusted and let loose.

Reframing the KM discussion

The tech sector is growing fast, but without thorough business analysis, insight, proper planning, and a focus on challenging the better-quicker-cheaper approach and replacing it with a beneficial-adaptable-affordable commitment, there is a world of trouble ahead.

Thinking about KM differently

Moving to a push rather than a pull mentality simply means that we now have the technology to tag, manage, and interpret information automatically and near instantly—automatically pushing the right information to the right person (or application) at the right time.

Data is never just data

As with all tools, data has uses because of complex contexts that include other objects, physics, social norms, social institutions, and human intentions.
