3. Why You Need Ontology And Information Architecture for Artificial Intelligence To Succeed

Ontology is a new sounding term if you are not in the AI, library science or semantic space. There is a philosophical context and there is our context. In philosophy, ontology is the study of being. In our information context, it describes a domain of knowledge.

Topics covered include:

  • Ontology: what is it and why should you care?
  • Why lots of data alone won’t be enough for AI success
  • Determining when an ontology is needed
  • Understanding of how ontologies are developed and applied

4. Continuing the AI journey – How And Where To Focus Resources

Many organizations have begun their AI journey and need to bring capabilities to the next level. There may be disconnected approaches and decentralized decision making. Lessons and successful approaches are not leveraged across siloes or repurposed and built upon. In other cases, projects may have shown value in a pilot, but are being held back from full deployments by various constraints.

Topics covered include:

  • Determining priorities for your efforts
  • Installing metrics to monitor progress and impact
  • Structuring governance and decision making
  • Engaging in appropriate risk and change management
