| − | ====Open Semantic Lab====
| |
| − | [https://github.com/OpenSemanticLab Open Semantic Lab] starts with the premise that '''Ontologies'''<ref>See Simon's https://github.com/General-Process-Ontology/ontology</ref> are key to standardize '''''everything'''''... but '''tools''' are needed to make ontologies '''''applicable''''' in everyday research. The OSL is the holistic and community driven platform to fulfill this roll... and links '''people''' (knowledge), '''machines''' (data) and '''algorithms''' (AI) '''equally.'''

| − | Since last year, the project has been completely based on the industry standards of JSON-SCHEMA and JSON-LD, enabling new applications quickly with easy integration to any third party software. Experimental support has been added to achieve Python triggered workflows through REST APIs and LocalGPT Q&A + search assistance.

A good way to understand the power of the Open Semantic Lab system is to look at an example use case where it was put into practice<ref>This was in 2022, so before the new version.

| |
| − | [[File:Architecture - Ask Wikidata SMWCon 2023.png|alt=Application architecture|thumb|architecture]] Robert Timms - Sr. Software Engineer Wikibase Suite, Wikimedia Deutschland gave [https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/SMWCon_Fall_2023/Natural_Language_Queries_to_Wikidata:_A_Na%C3%AFve_Prototype a talk] ([https://github.com/rti/askwikidata code] [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1YgDmcvoXaqnYdRyX5RxewVkeioEJ92nb8Sfb_halBsM slides] [https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1yRZshpNj0kXwY0XuUYw5ziqjw_RffxH- try it]) about querying Wikibase with an LLM. Slides 9-22 go from the application architecture to the 'tada' moment.

| − | | |
| − | Not the goal of the talk, but he revealed some of the key drawbacks of using "AI" in the first place:
| |
| − | | |
| − | #Outdated information
| |
| − | #Prone to hallucinations
| |
| − | #No sources (AI doesn't tell you how or why it claims to be authoritative.)
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is supposed to be addressed in part by using the <abbr title="Retrieval-Augmented Generation">RAG</abbr> technique.

| − | | |
| − | {{Notice|The 'gpt' in ChatGPT stands for "Generative Pre-trained Transformer" - or a fancy way to say "guess". The '''artificial''' intelligence of large language model GPTs '''guess''' what you would say next based on the prompt given and the dataset they are trained on. In OpenAI's own words: "Generative AI models formulate responses by matching patterns or words, while RAG systems retrieve data based on similarity of meaning or semantic searches."}}

| − | Yaron Koren gave a great presentation ([https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fixing_Wikidata_-_SMWCon_2023.pdf slides]) called '''[http://wikiworks.com/enhanced-wikibase.html Enhanced Wikibase]''' on how [[Wikibase]] (and therefore Wikidata) are missing features. He showed how he implemented these missing features in a series of developments. One is showcased at [https://wikidatawalkabout.org/ Wikidata Walkabout] - a drill-down and query interface to Wikibase sites; powered by [https://github.com/sahajsk21/Anvesha Anvesha] - a JavaScript library.
