Like the climate, does AI deserve its “COP”?

The idea of setting up an international conference similar to a “COP for AI”, along the lines of the climate COPs, deserves careful consideration in view of the growing economic and societal impacts of artificial intelligence (AI). I said recently that we need to stop thinking about AI from a philosophical...

Will AI save Knowledge Management?

Since its emergence 30 years ago, knowledge management has sought to capture, share and enhance the collective knowledge of organizations. But despite technological and methodological advances, one central challenge persists: how to make explicit the tacit knowledge that resides in the minds of employees?

The challenges posed by AI are not technological, but must be met today.

Artificial intelligence is making the headlines and is bound to have a huge impact on our jobs, our businesses and the way we work and live in the future. On the other hand, I'm not very satisfied with the content of the debates on the subject, especially as seen from France. Yes,...

Will AI replace juniors? The false debate that’s only the tip of the iceberg

I was discussing AI the other day with someone who was enthusiastic about the subject, to say the least. What he had to say was crystal clear and logical: “With AI, I won't be needing junior developers any more, they'll waste less of our time, and the seniors won't...

Can AI run out of fuel or kill the web?

Artificial intelligence feeds on human knowledge to give it back to us in an effortless and directly actionable way, for our greatest pleasure. But what would happen if this knowledge were to dry up?

AI in the workplace: going beyond augmentation to actually transform

Generative AI in the enterprise: a silo breaker or just another layer in an already complex IT landscape?

The massive arrival of generative AI solutions in the enterprise holds many promises, including, at last, some form of simplification. That's the upside. The flip side is increased costs and complexity. It's not so much a problem of technology as of governance, but it's a problem all the same. AI: a...

Consumer AI in the enterprise: the usual story of IS consumerization

Employees are starting to use AI tools in the workplace that they use in their personal lives, which is good news in terms of their maturity but creates security risks. This is the finding of a study conducted by Microsoft and Linkedin reported here by HRExecutive. This is no surprise...
