KM news

On September 18, 2026, IBM Research unveiled "Project Synapse," a decentralized knowledge management (KM) framework designed for the "post--silo" era. This breakthrough utilizes Federated Learning to enable global enterprises to synthesize insights across distributed departments without centralizing sensitive data. By employing "Privacy--Preserving Semantic Alignment," the system allows local AI agents to contribute to a global organizational knowledge graph while maintaining strict data sovereignty. IBM announced that the first live demonstration of this technology will occur at the IBM Quantum & AI Summit on October 12, 2026, in New York.
