In 2014 I began the primary of the PKM workshops, primarily based on a mannequin of three actions per week over six weeks to be accomplished as a cohort with a typical begin and end date. I might be accessible to answer contributors and supply help as required, together with video calls.
It’s now the top of the road.
The workshop has hosted lots of of contributors from world wide. The actions have been modified every year so the present model seems to be pretty totally different from the primary. The final workshop will begin on 5 October 2026. As all the time, earlier contributors might attend at no further value. However there can be no extra on-line PKM workshops.
The rampant rise of Gen AI instruments is likely one of the causes I can be shutting down this workshop sequence after the October cohort. I want to determine how we will individually and collectively make sense as we wallow within the AI slop. I’m considering of a sequence of stay periods for small teams of inquiring minds, however nothing is agency but. As well as, I really feel unqualified to speak with any authority on Generative AI (although I’ve written just a few posts) and that’s another excuse to shut this workshop, as I do know it can possible want extra of a deal with AI and I’m not keen to speculate the hassle at the moment — the expertise and the enterprise fashions round it are altering too quick. So I must pivot if I want to promote sensemaking within the present surroundings. This will likely take a while.
Please be a part of us for one final journey earlier than the top of the road.
