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.

The advances in AI and information management are not our enemies; they are our most powerful allies. When wielded by skilled KM professionals, these technologies work. When deployed without our input, they fail miserably, delivering incorrect, misleading, or plain nonsensical results.
