AI captures tacit expert knowledge

The industry is pivoting from synthetic data generation to "Expert Knowledge Capture," focusing on externalizing tacit knowledge—the intuitive, experience-based insights that are traditionally difficult to codify. This shift aims to bridge the gap between theoretical LLM training and real-world practical application in specialized fields.

// ANALYSIS

Capturing "tribal knowledge" is the next frontier for domain-specific AI, especially as industries face the "Silver Tsunami" of retiring experts.

–Theoretical training on books fails to capture the "know-how" of physical trades; iterative AI-guided interviews are emerging as the solution.
–Startups like Interloom are building "Context Graphs" to turn expert workflows into permanent, queryable AI memory.
–Passive capture tools like Limitless (recently acquired by Meta) point to a future where expertise is mined from daily actions rather than manual documentation.
–The market is moving from "RAG on docs" to "RAG on experience," which is essential for high-stakes industries like manufacturing and carpentry.
