LLM: can understand knowledge across domains

KMS = (K x M ) ^S

K: knowledge

M: management

S: spreading

7 generations of knowledge management:

Knowledge database

Knowledge domain

Collaborative editing

Knowledge labeling

Knowledge graph

Big model / LLM

AGI

LLM includes GPT includes ChatGPT

ChatGTP brings hope for AGI (artificial general intelligence)

Reinforced learning / alignment

MOE

Intelligence system is much stronger than human intelligence

Current situation in knowledge management of companies in China

Cannot be accumulated

Cannot be found

Cannot be understood

Solutions

Accumulated

Visible

Values

Long term memory

Learn from mistakes

Grow employees

Improve productivity

Example:

Application in high speed rail

Solutions:

Automated analysis of knowledge

曹植 LLM

Knowledge graph

Architecture -> storage (graph database + vector database) -> application -> user interface

Knowledge management system

Knowledge architecture

Knowledge search

Knowledge community

Knowledge chain

Q&A

Knowledge delivery

Industries:

Medical

Automobile

Financial

Complexity

PDF including text and graphics

Needs deep knowledge of the industry

Knowledge delivery

Knowledge chain

Knowledge Q&A

RAG - retrieval augmented generation

Knowledge organization:

Knowledge search

Knowledge brain - full solution

Handling special situations

Not finding matched answers:

Can refuse to answer

Or can use LLM to answer, but label the answer may contain hallucination

Lots of challenges

Hallucination

Refresh of knowledge

Multi-tier solution

Knowledge enhancement: RAG, knowledge graph, plugin, agent

Model ability

Other challenges

Language is only part of the knowledge

Non language knowledge

Hard to reach human level intelligence by only relying on language

AGI

Multi-model

Induction

Use of tools

AGI challenges

Software future

Engineer will live

Software will die

Medium company?

Difficult to adopt LLM/knowledge management system

Can use SaaS based LLM, such as GPT/co-pilot

Customer case?

Electrical utility company - troubleshooting

GM - troubleshooting

Challenges:

Lack of cooperation between different departments

knowledge/documentation incomplete

Future for China/US

In the short run the gap will increase; in the long run the gap will shrink

Limitation of GPU

But in the future China may overcome the lack of GPU

Lots of opportunity in China

Very big market - can specialize in one vertical (Steel, airline,etc)

Price competition

Price war is caused by competition

国内很卷

Startup ecosystem

In china: Difficult to be funded. Lots of market

Easier in silicon valley

Specialty in 达观

Graph + LLM

Troubleshooting scenario

Market is big enough

Cannot take all market - expect competition

How to update knowledge

Can ingest from other systems

Can upload

Can write adapters

100 people for development

200 people customization/deployment

Knowledge graph?

GensGraph

Nebula graph

How do the UIs integrate together?

If they have an existing system - usually don’t buy a new system

Integrate

Replace

RAG?

Usually not effective

Usually customize code / dirty work - lots of scenarios

Integrate with knowledge graph
