JOIN US AT KMWORLD NOVEMBER 6–9, 2023 JW MARRIOTT WASHINGTON, D.C.

It's an exciting time for KM, with new technologies and new approaches sparking new opportunities. The KMWorld conference, the largest global gathering of KM thought leaders, practitioners, and authors, returns to Washington, D.C., this November.

OBSERVATIONS ON KM: Past, Present, and Future

Pairing human knowledge with technologies that allow for data extraction, information analysis, and knowledge insights is the future of KM.

Looking to the Future of Knowledge Management: 2020 Insight

Throughout all KM solutions and services, a wave of modern technologies, such as AI, machine learning, natural language processing, and others, are serving to enhance traditional capabilities. As we enter a new year—and a new decade—there is an opportunity to reflect on what is happening now and what may lie ahead in the world of knowledge man­agement solutions and services to deliver more timely and targeted insights to users when and where they need it.

KM past and present: making the most of your resources

It would not be an exaggeration to say that knowledge management is experiencing a quantum leap. With the advent of big data, forays into AI and great volumes of sensor data from the Internet of Things (IoT), there is a new frontier that deserves exploring.

The importance of story making combining humans and AI at KMWorld 2024

At KMWorld 2024, John Lewis, CKO, Explanation Age LLC, and, Art Murray, CEO, Applied Knowledge Sciences, Inc. and Director, Enterprise of the Future Program, International Institute for Knowledge and Innovation, presented their session, "Story Thinking: Combining Human & Artificial Intelligence."

Building a governance model for enterprise knowledge at KMWorld 2023

Art Murray, CEO, Applied Knowledge Sciences, Inc. and director, enterprise of the future program, International Institute for Knowledge and Innovation, led KMWorld 2023's workshop, "Building a Governance Model for Enterprise Knowledge," to explore the seven major facets of organizational knowledge governance that, in the face of the proliferation of KM assets, place KM joy at the forefront.

Looking to the Past to Co-Create the Future

As more ancient texts become digitized and translated, let's go all-in by using human-augmented AI, combining ancient knowledge artifacts with our modern body of research. And let's not just be confined to one or two disciplines. Infinitely large numbers of breakthrough innovations even more impactful than the examples shared are possible.

Bringing Knowledge Out of the Shadows

We can only wonder how many breakthrough ideas remain undiscovered simply because the right pieces did not fall into place. What better way to make those connections happen by design, rather than by chance, than for KM to provide the missing interstitial scaffolding?

If We’re Truly in the Knowledge Age, Why Is Higher Education in Crisis?

Clearly, both traditional college degrees and specialized trade certifications are too narrow and fragmented to fully prepare students for what lies ahead. For now, a hybrid system is emerging that balances the arts and the sciences, augmented by one or more areas of specialization. KM's multidisciplinary nature gives us a distinct advantage in helping to make this transformation happen. The trick is knowing when to work inside and when to work outside the formal system.

Is Your Agentic AI Built on Sand or Bedrock?

Data and knowledge do not, anymore, exist as separate components. They are rapidly merging into a single architecture. As KM'ers, we can no longer leave data management solely up to the admins. Rather, we need to work closely with them on creating data architectures that are contextually and semantically rich enough to be reliably actionable for use by autonomous and semi-autonomous agents.

Human Evolution in a Digital World

Human senses play a critical role in group interaction and collaboration, a key aspect of KM.

A System of Systems … With a Twist

Many long-standing technologies such as swarm intelligence, biomimicry, neural networks, and the like are now being stitched together. Think of what could happen if each of those technologies interacted not only with each other but also with the environment at large, its living and artificial elements, as an integrated whole.

Life in the Virtual Trenches

Immersive Learning - The applications in education are obvious. But you can build use cases for almost any domain.

Scarcity Versus Abundance

The Knowledge Age we've been talking about for so long has finally arrived. The potential for scarcity is real, but so is the potential for overflowing abundance. Let's bring every tool in our KM arsenal to bear, along with our decades of experience, and help make it happen.
