He argues:<br><em>\u201cWe must draw the consequences of this transformation of space that affects humanity with the emergence of new information and communication technologies \u2013 particularly by striving to establish a new balance between the material and the intangible.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout history, two major inventions have profoundly transformed knowledge organization (KO), bridging culture and knowledge transmission: writing (circa the fourth millennium BCE) and printing (introduced by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century). Today,&nbsp;<strong>digital technology<\/strong>&nbsp;represents a third major revolution, significantly impacting&nbsp;<strong>knowledge organization systems (KOS), knowledge transmission, education, pedagogy, society, and the global economy<\/strong>, now increasingly oriented toward the intangible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the dawn of the 21st century, we are witnessing the rise of a new discipline known as&nbsp;<strong>D<em>igital Sciences<\/em><\/strong>, encompassing both the&nbsp;<strong>hardware and software dimensions of information and communication technologies<\/strong>. These&nbsp;<strong>digital sciences<\/strong>&nbsp;are redefining how knowledge is structured, shared, and accessed, while reshaping social interactions and human relationships with knowledge. A key development in this evolution is the&nbsp;<strong>emergence of Generative Artificial Intelligence (Generative AI)<\/strong>, which is transforming&nbsp;<strong>semantic <\/strong>intelligence<strong>, knowledge <\/strong>creation<strong>, classification and retrieval <\/strong>information<strong>, and <\/strong>knowledge <strong>governance.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As digital sciences and&nbsp;<strong>AI-driven knowledge systems<\/strong>&nbsp;evolve, society must adapt and develop new skills to navigate these transformations. Among the major shifts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The&nbsp;<strong>rise of Generative AI in knowledge organization<\/strong>, affecting both&nbsp;<strong>automatic knowledge production<\/strong>, <strong>semantic intelligence<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>interactive systems<\/strong>&nbsp;for learning and discovery.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The transformation of&nbsp;<strong>social networks and digital platforms<\/strong>&nbsp;into&nbsp;<strong>intelligent knowledge ecosystems<\/strong>&nbsp;capable of facilitating&nbsp;<strong>collective intelligence<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>automated knowledge curation<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The&nbsp;<strong>challenges posed by AI-driven misinformation<\/strong>, such as deepfakes, synthetic content, and biases in knowledge representation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ethical implications of&nbsp;<strong>AI governance in scholarly and professional knowledge organization<\/strong>, particularly concerning transparency, bias mitigation, and intellectual property rights.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These changes&nbsp;<strong>profoundly impact education, research methodologies, knowledge structuring, and decision-making<\/strong>, reshaping how&nbsp;<strong>academics, professionals, and institutions<\/strong>&nbsp;engage with&nbsp;<strong>knowledge organization systems (KOS)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Academic &amp; Sponsor Labels:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>University of Tunis<\/strong>&nbsp;Tunisia,&nbsp;<em>&nbsp;<\/em><strong>HIDE&nbsp;<\/strong>(Higher Institute of Digital Engineering) University of Tunis Tunisia,&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;ISKO-Maghreb<\/strong>&nbsp;international scholarly society,&nbsp;<strong>ANPR&nbsp;<\/strong>Tunisia,&nbsp;<strong>University of Lorraine<\/strong>&nbsp;France,&nbsp;<strong>ENSAH&nbsp;<\/strong>Hoceima Morocco<strong>, Saint Joseph University<\/strong>&nbsp;Beirut Lebanon,&nbsp;<strong>Libyan Academy<\/strong>&nbsp;Tripoli Libya,&nbsp;<strong>ALECSO&nbsp;<\/strong>Tunisia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>LORIA&nbsp;<\/strong>Lab (France),&nbsp;<strong>RIADI&nbsp;<\/strong>Lab (Tunisia),&nbsp;<strong>CERIST&nbsp;<\/strong>Algeria,&nbsp;<strong>NETLOR&nbsp;<\/strong>R&amp;D (France),&nbsp;<strong>DMI&nbsp;<\/strong>Lab (Morocco),&nbsp;<strong>LSE-COSYS&nbsp;<\/strong>Lab&nbsp;(ENIT\/ENSIT University of Tunis El-Manar, Tunisia).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>11th.
