In the realm of knowledge-intensive organizations, the tide is turning as artificial intelligence (AI) strides forward. The emergence of generative AI holds the promise of reshaping entire industries, with knowledge management standing out as uniquely positioned for AI-driven transformation. McKinsey heralds generative AI as the next frontier for productivity, suggesting that analyzing natural language text— a cornerstone of generative AI— consumes an average of 25% of each staff's time in an enterprise.
The potential of GenAI in Enterprises
Enterprises within the Energy, Pharma, or FMCG industries, inherently data-driven, are keenly eyeing the potential of generative AI to address complex use cases reliant on processing vast amounts of unstructured data. These include internal knowledge management, market analysis, business intelligence, regulatory compliance, and crafting marketing and sales strategies.
Across departments and hierarchies, staff invest a significant portion of their time in sourcing and scrutinizing company data and documents. Generative AI holds the promise of liberating them from this laborious task, enabling them to dedicate more time to making well-informed and strategic decisions at an earlier stage than previously possible.
Why GenAI, in its standard, out-of-the-box format like GPT 4, fails.
However, despite high expectations, generative AI has thus far fallen short in meeting the rigorous demands of knowledge-intensive enterprises.
For an AI chatbot to be enterprise-ready, it must fulfil 3 Trust criteria:
Timeliness,
Accuracy,
Transparency.
Large language models (LLMs), the foundation of many AI tools, have struggled to meet these standards, particularly within EU-based enterprises.
LLMs, designed for generalized tasks, lack the domain-specific knowledge and access to strategic information vital for enterprise use cases. This mismatch leads to a lack of understanding of specific company contexts and nuanced scenarios.
Moreover, generic LLMs often fail to provide sources for the information they generate, fostering a trust gap and posing risks to investments, reputations, and regulatory compliance. Additionally, the propensity for LLMs to generate coherent yet misleading or fabricated responses (hallucinations) exacerbates concerns surrounding data accuracy and decision-making reliability.
Fortunately, recent advancements in GenAI offer solutions to these challenges.
