Mike Pool: Is it time for a moratorium on the word “semantics”? – Episode 22

Mike Pool, with extensive experience in ontology and semantic technology at Bloomberg and Amazon, argues for a pause on the term 'semantics' to enhance clarity in discussions. He highlights the challenges of defining semantic technology's scope and the importance of aligning technical architectures with end-user needs. The conversation dives into the nuances of language, how to address misunderstandings, and the role of large language models in capturing meaning. Pool emphasizes the need for a domain-focused, pragmatic approach to reusability and scalability in semantic practices.
