Introduction

AI Data Corporation, based in Minato, Tokyo, has introduced an innovative framework named "Veteran Know-How AI™" through its AI infrastructure "AI Kongming on IDX". This platform aims to transform the accumulated experiences and implicit knowledge of veteran employees into a structured, organizational asset that can be utilized across the enterprise, thus enhancing the collective intelligence of the company.

Background: The Challenge of Knowledge Personalization

In many organizations, the expertise and intuition of veteran employees remain underutilized due to their dependency on individual experiences. This situation impedes the overall enhancement of competitiveness and productivity. Current challenges faced by companies across various sectors include:

• - The reliance on personal expertise of seasoned professionals without shared organizational mechanisms.
• - Difficulties in passing down knowledge to younger employees, leading to prolonged training times and increased costs.
• - Variability in quality of work depending on the individual, making standardization difficult.
• - Inability to replicate past successful experiences or methodologies.
• - Hesitation in advancing digital transformation due to slow progress in knowledge digitization.

As Japan’s workforce demographic shifts, with nearly half aged 50 and above, organizational knowledge loss due to veteran retirements poses an urgent business risk. Approximately 70% of small to medium-sized enterprises report challenges in succession planning and talent development, highlighting an urgent need for knowledge transfer mechanisms.

What is Veteran Know-How AI™?

Veteran Know-How AI™ serves as more than just a knowledge management tool; it is a transformative platform that enables AI to learn from seasoned professionals and structure their implicit knowledge. This evolution facilitates the sharing and application of this knowledge across the organization, resulting in a more intelligent corporate framework.

On the AI Kongming on IDX platform, seasoned professionals can interact with AI to derive new insights from company data. The core principle of this framework is that it’s not AI providing answers, but rather a collaborative process where veteran employees and AI co-create new solutions. For example, when a veteran expert poses the question, "What might be the real cause of our high defect rate in quality control?", AI Kongming cross-analyzes various parameters including equipment update times and night shift trends to collaboratively find a solution.
