Information Disambiguation in the era of Generative AI
From Ambiguity to Clarity. From Information to Wisdom.
In today's digital world, information travels faster than ever before, yet truth often struggles to keep pace. Artificial Intelligence, social media, search engines, and Generative AI have transformed how we create, consume, and leverage information. While these technologies have unlocked unprecedented opportunities, they have also amplified misinformation, deep-fakes, AI hallucinations, context loss, and semantic ambiguity, making it increasingly difficult to distinguish fact from fiction.
Information Disambiguation: Building a Truth-Centric Information Ecosystem in the Age of Generative AI, authored by Jayakumar K, explores this growing challenge and proposes a new interdisciplinary framework for preserving meaning, context, trust, and authenticity in modern information systems.
The book traces humanity's journey from ancient methods of knowledge preservation—such as clay tablets and manuscripts—to today's cloud computing, semantic technologies, Knowledge Graphs, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and Generative AI. It demonstrates how technological advancements must be complemented by ethical principles, human judgment, and semantic intelligence to build trustworthy digital ecosystems.
Bringing together concepts from information science, artificial intelligence, psychology, linguistics, media studies, and governance, the book introduces Information Disambiguation as a practical approach to transforming information into reliable knowledge. It also highlights India's rich knowledge traditions and growing digital infrastructure as valuable contributors to the future of global information governance.
More than a book on technology, this work is a call to build a future where AI not only generates information but also safeguards truth, context, and human understanding.
Information Disambiguation is an essential read for researchers, educators, policymakers, journalists, technology professionals, students, and all those committed to creating a more transparent, trustworthy, and human-centered digital world.
