190: ‘AI + KM = Smarter AEC Firms’, with Christopher Parsons

Christopher Parsons joins the podcast to talk about about the evolution of knowledge management (KM) in the AEC industry—from KM 1.0 (knowledge capture) to KM 2.0 (knowledge sharing), to KM 3.0 (knowledge in the flow of work). We explore how AI is catalyzing a shift toward real-time, firm-wide knowledge operations, and why success in this new era isn’t just about better tools—it’s about cultural, process, and operational change. Christopher shares the origin story of Knowledge Architecture, real examples of KM 3.0 in action, and why knowledge is now a team sport that requires clarity, community, and intentional communication to unlock its full value.
