Constraint Management & IT - 10 Can knowledge be the constraint?
Can knowledge be the constraint?
Knowledge is the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject. Human intelligence is no longer the only way to produce, comprehend, and apply knowledge. Technologies have progressed to the point where it’s sometimes hard to tell whether natural or artificial intelligence is at work.
Artificial Intelligence technologies have cycled through excitement and disappointment since the 1970s. We're currently in another exciting period, so AI is a worthy topic for the exploration of constraint management (Theory of Constraints).
Any business that offers AI products faces the same potential constraints as any other product business: hardware, software, skills, etc. However, a business that offers AI services can have a knowledge constraint. For instance, if the service is an automated chatbot that responds to customer inquiries and the chatbot is only able to answer a small portion of inquiries, the knowledge behind the chatbot can be a constraint. That is, delivery of that service is restricted by lack of knowledge.
