  • Have you ever imagined your knowledge graph?

    "graph" here is from Math and Computer Science but we can simply think of all the real world "things" in our private data and their relations. Hey everyone, Sumit here from the Himalayas. Yes the title is catchy but the implications of this thought process are deep. All our data from emails, Slack, LinkedIn, text messages, files... have real world "things". For example: my work, my startup, my experiences, meetings I attend, places I visit, questions I ask - they are all there in my emails, Slack messages, etc. Those "things" and their relations to each other are the "graph" or "knowledge graph" to be a bit more accurate. Let's imagine a graph in a simple format: - event: going to meet {person: Mitesh} {date: tomorrow} - ask: what's the status on {task: the designs}? - request: can you please take over {date: today's} {event: meeting on Product updates}? We can already see "things" before the colon (":") and then the detail after the colon. I am sure we can think of hundreds of such snippets of connected "things" from our personal data. This is a gold mine, our CRM. Now imagine if AI had this knowledge was able to answer our questions about work... How would it change how we work? Cheers!

    Hi @brainless! I feel having access to something of that sort would be like having a digitised version of a part of our brain and our life, perhaps including the sub-conscious too? :) It is not surprising that there is striking resemblance between how our brain functions and how a graph is structured, specially given the whole subject is inspired from the brain's neural anatomy.
