From Human Only to AI Inclusive: Now Is The Time to Evolve Your Content Strategy

Recorded on May 9, 2024

For years, the focus of our content strategy has been on crafting messaging for human audiences, leveraging personas, controlled vocabulary, and tone. However, with the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a new audience, our approach must evolve. How does this shift impact our writing, and how can we create content that resonates with humans while effectively training AI systems? Can the same content achieve both goals and does it hinge on our AI usage intentions? Join Leigh White in this thought-provoking webinar as she delves into the necessary considerations for how we must rethink our approach if we want to use our content to teach the machines to teach us.

When one right answer’s not enough: goal-oriented content delivery beyond simple search and AI

Recorded on June 5, 2024

Subscribe

Watch

Delivery of tech docs often focuses on search — getting users to a good starting place. But users often have goals that a single page can’t cover. Serious tasks can require reference info, scenarios, and guidance. Users may need information in different media. Each user’s goal depends on their specific context, and they need to follow a unique path through the information. Writers cannot possibly design content for all of those users, with all of their unique paths.

Many of the ways that people have tried have failed. At various times, tech docs have relied more on search, or more on manual hyperlinks, or taxonomy. Pages have been long or short, other media have gone and come. Now AI offers easier ways to map content together, but even that’s not enough. Why?

Only a combination of techniques will give you the information model that you need. And the techniques on their own won’t get you all the way — you need an integrated design to bring your solution together. Learn how.

Key takeaways of this webinar will be: - The real needs of complex tasks for users, and how to map them to usable metadata. - What AI can do to suggest appropriate content — and what it can’t - How to design a suitable goal-enabling solution for your own organization’s needs

Uncover the various ways to use a RAG solution with PoolParty and GraphDB

We’re familiar with RAG - but which RAG is the right fit? As organizations increasingly rely on AI-driven information retrieval and generation, traditional Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) systems often fall short in production environments. Various solutions have emerged to address this challenge, recognizing that “one size does not fit all” - each organization has unique requirements to tackle this issue within their framework. Increase efficiency by up to 20% with Semantic RAG (AKA Graph RAG)

This webinar explores an innovative solution: Semantic RAG, which harnesses the power of knowledge graphs, large language models (LLMs), and graph databases to enhance semantic retrieval and generation capabilities.

A key focus will be on LLM-derived knowledge graphs, demonstrating how they can be created and refined with human-in-the-loop processes to achieve greater accuracy and explainability. We'll explore memory constructs in Graph RAG operations, illustrated through practical demonstrations using PoolParty and GraphDB.

We will dive into a real-world case study and explore the pipeline, architecture, and practical applications of Semantic RAG systems. This will showcase valuable insights into the seamless collaboration between PoolParty and GraphDB to deliver a robust Semantic RAG solution. Expert strategies will be shared for maximizing the impact of these innovative technologies by shortening time to insight, providing savvy querying for the untrained, and lowering long term maintenance costs.

Márcia Ferreira, Data and Knowledge Engineer (Technical Consultant) at Semantic Web Company, and Krasimira Bozhonova, Solutions Architect at Ontotext, will walk you through the following aspects and explain the benefits of a Semantic RAG approach:

Vector RAG vs. Graph RAG
Grounding LLMs with Graph
Conventional RAG vs. Semantic RAG
Different varieties of Graph RAG
Demo of PoolParty Semantic RAG and GraphDB

In the meantime, have a look at our Semantic Retrieval Augmented Generation page to learn more about the capabilities and benefits of utilizing Knowledge Graphs to power your Generative AI experience.

We hope to see you there!
