An AI DAM?

 AI can be incorporated into a DAM (digital asset management) system to enhance its functionality and efficiency. A DAM system is a software platform that stores, organises, and distributes digital assets such as images, videos, audio files, documents, and more. AI can help a DAM system in various ways, such as:


  • Automating the metadata generation and tagging of digital assets, using techniques such as computer vision, natural language processing, and machine learning. This can save time and effort for the users and improve the accuracy and consistency of the metadata.
  • Enabling smart search and retrieval of digital assets, using natural language queries, semantic analysis, and relevance ranking. This can help users find the most suitable assets for their needs and preferences, and avoid duplication or redundancy of assets.
  • Providing content analysis and insights, using data mining, sentiment analysis, and content optimization. This can help users understand the performance and impact of their digital assets, and suggest ways to improve them or create new ones.
  • Enhancing the user experience and interface, using chatbots, voice assistants, and recommendation systems. This can help users interact with the DAM system more naturally and intuitively, and receive personalised suggestions and feedback.


AI can thus add value to a DAM system by automating tasks, improving quality, increasing efficiency, and delivering insights. However, AI also poses some challenges and risks for a DAM system, such as:


  • Ensuring the security and privacy of the digital assets and the user data, especially when using cloud-based or third-party AI services. This requires implementing proper encryption, authentication, authorization, and auditing mechanisms.
  • Maintaining the transparency and explainability of the AI algorithms and decisions, especially when they affect the user rights or interests. This requires providing clear documentation, justification, and accountability for the AI processes and outcomes.
  • Avoiding the bias and discrimination of the AI models and outputs, especially when they affect the user diversity or inclusion. This requires ensuring the fairness, accuracy, and representativeness of the data sources, methods, and metrics used by the AI systems.


AI can be a powerful tool for enhancing a DAM system, but it also requires careful design, implementation, evaluation, and governance. A DAM system that incorporates AI should balance the benefits and risks of AI, and align with the ethical principles and best practices of both fields.

The AI Dilemma and "Gollem-Class" AIs

From the Center for Humane Technology Tristan Harris and Aza Raskin discuss how existing A.I. capabilities already pose catastrophic risks to a functional society, how A.I. companies are caught in a race to deploy as quickly as possible without adequate safety measures, and what it would mean to upgrade our institutions to a post-A.I. world. This presentation is from a private gathering in San Francisco on March 9th with leading technologists and decision-makers with the ability to influence the future of large-language model A.I.s. This presentation was given before the launch of GPT-4. One of the more astute critics of the tech industry, Tristan Harris, who has recently given stark evidence to Congress. It is worth watching both of these videos, as the Congress address gives a context of PR industry and it's regular abuses. "If we understand the mechanisms and motives of the group mind, it is now possible to control and regiment the masses according to our will without their...

CRM and AI?

Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used in a CRM system to enhance customer service, sales performance, and marketing strategies. Here are some examples of how AI can be applied in a CRM: - AI can enable natural language processing and voice input, such as Siri or Alexa, to allow a CRM system to answer customer queries, solve their problems, and even identify new opportunities for the sales team. Some AI-driven CRM systems can even multitask to handle all these functions and more. - AI can help with sales forecasting by analysing historical data, customer behaviour, and market trends. This can help the sales team make more accurate predictions for future sales figures and determine a success metric. - AI can assist with lead management by automating the process of qualifying and nurturing prospects. It can use chatbots and email bots to understand leads' needs and inform the sales team to improve their performance. With insights gained from these bots, companies can optimise their...

A Network Analysis Tool to help identify structural gaps

  InfraNodus is a web-based open source tool and method for generating insight from any text or discourse using text network analysis. The byline on the website states, 'Get an overview of any discourse, reveal the blind spots, enhance your perspective.' which, whilst accurate does little to summarise the potential of such a tool. Watching the introduction helps. Its capabilities include representing any text as a network and identifying the most influential words in a discourse based on the terms' co-occurrence, providing text network visualization and analysis live as new data is added, offering discourse structure analysis to measure the level of bias in discourse and identify structural gaps in discourse, and being available via an API to be used in conjunction with other text mining and analysis software. The white paper, ' Generating Insight Using Text Network Analysis ' concludes:  'The tool is currently used by researchers, marketing professionals, stude...
