The Kim Knowledge Management platform aligns with the Baldwin Effect’s characteristics supporting a new paradigm that could be described as an evolving inanimate. Current cognitive computing solutions start with the first step as described by Baldwin, which is learning. Kim starts at the second step; establishing an innate, contextually sensitive and fundamental knowledge base from which learning occurs. With Kim starting with the second step, the system is able to drive knowledge acquisition with real-time knowledge representation thereby creating an interactive and adaptable knowledge base in a rapid manner.
