and Data have to go hand-in-hand, and having data in the cloud does
not absolve us of responsibility for governance of that data.
TAXONOMY AND AI.
The big question here seems to be whether AI will render taxonomies
obsolete. Will well-engineered prompts replace well-architected
taxonomies? I for one am in the camp of the continued value of
taxonomies. In the past two years, we have learned about the value
of curated content populating a large language model. If curated
content is a key to success with Gen AI, then a taxonomy can be a key
to success in delivering a well-curated content repository.
Enjoy the articles that follow! Hopefully they will provide you with
food for thought on organizational roles and responsibilities, as well
as processes, going into the new year!
Let me end by thanking you all for contributing to an amazing 2024
for ILTA!
We wish you a wonderful 2025, and we are looking forward to seeing
you, speaking with you, and learning from you in the new year!
Hugs to all! ILTA
