Abstract

  • Stakeholder engagement and AI
  • Participate in our AI use cases poll
  • Review our recent Subscription content

Item

Throughout the first half of this year, we have explored AI from different perspectives - from licensed content and training to information teams and stakeholder expectations.

A common thread has emerged:

"The conversation is moving from what AI means for information professionals, to where it can make a practical difference."

AI is changing the conversations information professionals are having with their stakeholders - and creating opportunities to engage earlier and more proactively.

Our new report "Stakeholder engagement and AI – How information managers can create value in an AI-enabled organisation" takes this further, asking a fundamental question:

"We have AI. Why do we still need an information function?"

The answer ultimately comes back to helping organisations make better decisions.

AI use cases

This autumn, we’re taking the next step: from understanding the impact of AI, to identifying practical AI use cases.

We want to understand what information professionals and managers are already doing with AI, and identify use cases that could improve day-to-day work.

Please participate in our short AI use case poll to help us understand how you are using AI and what you would like to be using AI for in future. All participants will receive a summary of the results:

As part of our research, the community session in September will focus on "AI use cases in information management". In October, we'll move on to how promising use cases can be put into practice in "From AI use cases to implementation".

The stakeholder engagement report, and poll on AI use cases, builds on the AI themes we’ve explored throughout the year.

For a quick overview of our recent Subscription content and how the different areas of research connect, see our blog "All recent Subscription content".

I hope you had a good summer break. We're looking forward to an autumn focused on turning the AI conversation into practical applications.
