The text discusses the growing importance of knowledge graphs in leveraging data and delivering analytical insights, particularly with machine learning. Knowledge graphs are increasingly being adopted by organizations due to their flexibility, explicit storage of data relationships, and ability to surface context. The convergence of AI and knowledge graphs is driving intelligence into data, making it smarter and more trustworthy. This technology has significant advantages as graphs naturally store, compute, and analyze connections and relationships among data. Companies are leveraging knowledge graphs with machine learning for various use cases, from enhancing heuristics to complex uses like training embeddings in a graph-native learning model. The text highlights the benefits of combining knowledge graphs with AI, including improved accuracy, increased predictive power, and better decisioning capabilities.
