Artificial intelligence (AI) is redefining the way search engines perform, setting apart those that excel from those still catching up. Traditional search engines have long relied on algorithms focused on matching keywords with indexed content, but AI-powered systems are taking things further. They deliver more accurate, context-aware and personalized results, changing how we find and interact with information online. This shift is creating a divide between search engines that successfully integrate AI and those struggling to adapt. This very interesting topic came to us from Fast Company in their article, “Google who? This new service actually gets AI search right.”

AI has transformed the core mechanics of search by going beyond simple keyword matching. Using tools like machine learning, natural language processing and deep learning, these advanced systems are designed to understand the intent behind a query, not just the words.

While AI has undoubtedly enhanced the way we search, there’s something even more effective at delivering precise, meaningful results—a custom taxonomy

No matter how advanced AI becomes, it often lacks the ability to truly understand the nuances of specialized industries or unique organizational needs. This is where custom taxonomies shine.

At the end of the day, content needs to be findable, and that happens with a strong, standards-based taxonomy. Data Harmony is our patented, award winning, AI suite that leverages explainable AI for efficient, innovative and precise semantic discovery of your new and emerging concepts, to help you find the information you need when you need it.
