IMO any project using #RDF and #SemanticWeb should have a path to exposing their data as Triple Pattern Fragments so that it can be actually usable. Without it we get into a situation where everyone needs to duplicate everyone's data and increase resource usage. It also cements large centralized databases into power. Having a lightweight query layer is essential for having lightweight clients.

If you hang around with computerists long enough, they start talking about the Semantic Web. If you can represent human knowledge in a way that's easy for computers to understand it will be transformative for information processing. But computers, traditionally, haven't been very good at parsing ambiguous …

@simon_lucy I don't know how to geek out on technology for the sake of it, since I don't have that kind of time at my disposal.
I just demonstrated practical utility of a #SemanticWeb using a simple example i.e., figuring out the number of questions associated with an FAQ published in a #Web page 😀
May be worth a bit of your time: "Ian Horrocks: KR and the Semantic Web: What We Did Right (and Wrong)"
Comparative web page crawling exercise, taking into account the following factors:
[1] The emergence of a #SemanticWeb where web pages increasingly embed RDF-based structured data islands as enhanced metadata.
[2] The web crawling functionality provided by #ChatGPT, #Bing, and #Bard.

Was great to watch Ian Horrocks' talk #KnowledgeRepresentation & #SemanticWeb: What We Did Right & Wrong in our @cost_dkg@twitter.com talk series https://twitter.com/cost_dkg/status/1658808865662676993 ... Recording available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfb04V8WY6Y #knowledgegraphs

"Fluree: an Immutable, Verifiable, Shareable Database" by Daniel Petranek
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PV4IUuqblig
More #database stuff – this time, with a completely different idea. The talk makes a really compelling argument for how we should have a #SemanticWeb database and for using the tools that already exist. I also like the idea of getting rid of the typical Web Server - Persistence interaction boilerplate.
Glad to formally release my latest work - Surveillance Graphs: Vulgarity and Cloud Orthodoxy in Linked Data Infrastructures.
web: https://jon-e.net/surveillance-graphs
hcommons: https://doi.org/10.17613/syv8-cp10
A bit of an overview and then I'll get into some of the more specific arguments in a thread:
This piece is in three parts:
First I trace the mutation of the liberatory ambitions of the #SemanticWeb into #KnowledgeGraphs, an underappreciated component in the architecture of #SurveillanceCapitalism. This mutation plays out against the backdrop of the broader platform capture of the web, rendering us as consumer-users of information services rather than empowered people communicating over informational protocols.
I then show how this platform logic influences two contemporary public information infrastructure projects: the NIH's Biomedical Data Translator and the NSF's Open Knowledge Network. I argue that projects like these, while well intentioned, demonstrate the fundamental limitations of platformatized public infrastructure and create new capacities for harm by their enmeshment in and inevitable capture by information conglomerates. The dream of a seamless "knowledge graph of everything" is unlikely to deliver on the utopian promises made by techno-solutionists, but they do create new opportunities for algorithmic oppression -- automated conversion therapy, predictive policing, abuse of bureacracy in "smart cities," etc. Given the framing of corporate knowledge graphs, these projects are poised to create facilitating technologies (that the info conglomerates write about needing themselves) for a new kind of interoperable corporate data infrastructure, where a gradient of public to private information is traded between "open" and quasi-proprietary knowledge graphs to power derivative platforms and services.
When approaching "AI" from the perspective of the semantic web and knowledge graphs, it becomes apparent that the new generation of #LLMs are intended to serve as interfaces to knowledge graphs. These "augmented language models" are joint systems that combine a language model as a means of interacting with some underlying knowledge graph, integrated in multiple places in the computing ecosystem: eg. mobile apps, assistants, search, and enterprise platforms. I concretize and extend prior criticism about the capacity for LLMs to concentrate power by capturing access to information in increasingly isolated platforms and expand surveillance by creating the demand for extended personalized data graphs across multiple systems from home surveillance to your workplace, medical, and governmental data.
I pose Vulgar Linked Data as an alternative to the infrastructural pattern I call the Cloud Orthodoxy: rather than platforms operated by an informational priesthood, reorienting our public infrastructure efforts to support vernacular expression across heterogeneous #p2p mediums. This piece extends a prior work of mine: Decentralized Infrastructure for (Neuro)science) which has more complete draft of what that might look like.
(I don't think you can pre-write threads on masto, so i'll post some thoughts as I write them under this) /1
Q: Can I fine-tune #ChatGPT using #SPARQL such that it basically becomes a #SmartAgent capable of querying across the massive #LODCloud #KnowledgeGraph, using natural language?
Yes!

I'm tinkering with an own CV-Webpage as I'm a bit fed up with my current employer and want some place which I can reference when dealing with recruiters and HR departments.
Question:
Is there a standard for the usage of semantic html in CVs? (e.g. some best practice when to use <section> and <article> or some guidelines for a structure that can be easily processed by recruiting software)
#boost #followerpower #semantic #semanticweb #html #cv #homepage
@fraying Sadly, this is also true for the #SemanticWeb that was called web 3.0 around 2005-ish, and while it's there and still growing, it by far didn't take off as I'd have loved to see it. Of all things called web 3.0, this would have been worthy.

It seems to me that #web3 types should be the strongest supporters and adopters of the #SemanticWeb (#LinkedData), because machine-readable facts reduce the need for (human) #oracles when settling #SmartContracts.
(And for some reason I suspect #crypto people may be the least interested in that kind of thorough web hygiene.)
@J12t ,
Sets up stage for understanding and appreciating the semantics associated with entity identifiers.
For instance, you ultimately end up with an entity relationship graph comprising a variety of handles that denote the same entity.
In a #SemanticWeb this is ground-zero, since relationship type semantics exist for this kind of identity reconciliation 😀

doing some editing before I release this piece and sometimes you just write something that is true, yno? #SemanticWeb #KnowledgeGraphs
Circa 2023, #ChatGPT (and others) have arrived opening up a new frontier for understanding and utilizing the unique prowess a #SemanticWeb brings to bear -- courtesy of a #ConversationalUI approach to #SmartAgent implementation.
I've just published a blog post that doubles as a live end-to-end example of what's always made the notion of a Semantic Web a major leap forward in the evolution of technology first introduced via the World Wide Web (#Web).
For many years I've observed the following in parallel:
1. General confusion (and in some cases disdain) about the notion of a #SemanticWeb
2. Steadfast effort by a community to keep the vision going, stealthily, as exemplified by the #LODCloud (#DBpedia,, #Wikidata, #Uniprot etc..) and Schema.org (#SchemaOrg)
3. #DataSilos and all the impedance they inflict on the agility of individuals and enterprises alike on the rise i.e., #DataAccess and #DataFlow are still challenging, unnecessarily.
You spend months trying to articulate why prior criticisms of #LLMs as being ungrounded text generators are missing the bigger picture of their development and intrinsic relationship with the history of the #SemanticWeb via #KnowledgeGraphs and then they just.... say it
We are happy to announce that our paper titled "CIRO: COVID-19 infection risk ontology" has been published 🎉

Hello everyone! I'm a web developer (#Node and #PHP) in Madison, Wisconsin.
In my free time, I enjoy exploring the idea of #PKM, #SecondBrain, and using #Wiki to improve my #Productivity and #NoteTaking. I'm passionate about the ideals of the #IndieWeb and #SemanticWeb. I'm also interested in #Metaphysics, #Manifestation, and #Synchronicity.
I want to meet new people for conversations. I'd love to connect if any of my interests resonate with you! Thanks for reading my #Introduction.
The world is fast building new information infrastructure with bot usable web APIs as chatbot plug-ins.
Everyone is also racing to encode their core knowledge assets in bot readable form so that #LLM #chatbots such as #ChatGPT and others can produce new value from that knowledge.
Encoding APIs and knowledge requires excellent skills in documentation and writing, understanding the point of view of the reader who in this case is a machine. Who would have thought #writing and #documentation would become the next strategic skill in the #AI revolution? It's just called #PromptEngineering now.
I suppose every company should now make sure in recruitment that people have skills in documentation, not as much specific mark-up languages, but clear technical writing skills.
#SemanticWeb skills are becoming so hot right now.
Finally I have an answer to people asking what skills are relevant in the future: Skills to have clarity of thought, understanding of what is possible and capability to describe your ideas and knowledge clearly. These skills will be relevant for a long time.
I'll start a sequence of random autobiographical tidbits which would otherwise be forever lost. #TerosTidbits
When I was studying in the 9th grade in high school in 1997, Kurikan Yläaste, I managed to complete the math study book way before the semester ended. The teacher (can't remember his name) said: "Oh well, here's the gymnasium (senior high, Kurikan Lukio) math book. Continue with that."
In gymnasium I took all the optional math courses, which no one else took. I remember demanding that the school must arrange the course for "numerical mathematics" for which I was the only student. Ultimately the principal taught me personally that course.
I coded bifurcation diagrams on my TI-85, and also Mandelbrot fractal which took over a day to render on that calculator. This is some old code of mine on Turbo Pascal from those times which I believe draws bifurcation diagrams: https://github.com/keskival/turbo-pascal-experiments/blob/master/BIN/pas/BIF.PAS
I also found old code of mine which uses neural reinforcement learning to train the system to play Pong:
https://github.com/keskival/turbo-pascal-experiments/blob/master/BIN/pas/PELIA2.PAS
I think I was about 15 years old at the time in about 1997. I was inspired by some rough description of a Perceptron from some TXT file which I probably got from some BBS. I didn't know applying reinforcement learning to neural networks was state of the art at the time, as it was, because I didn't have access to any publications or information. That's why the algorithm is so weird, and isn't any of the "proper" #RL algorithms. It works though.
I also did a lot of 3D graphics, Gouraud shading, backface culling, quaternions and stuff in those times.
I made a 3D starfield from scratch which was real 3D with palette rotation from grey to white to show star distance in the 7th grade in 1995. Showed to the IT teacher, who said: "Yeah, it takes a while to see how that moves." I got the grade 8 for IT (grades 4-10). The teacher didn't believe I had coded it from scratch.
After that I also taught many IT courses for kids every summer, teached kids between 10-14 years old to program Java applets. That was between years 1999-2000.
I also took all the cheap municipal "Kansalaisopisto" evening courses which related tangentially to IT. I remember teaching the elderly in those courses how to use computers while they taught me what "discounting" in Excel means.
After that I went to Tampere University of Technology in year 2000, from which I graduated as a MSc in Information Technology in 2008. It took a bit longer than usual because I did half a year of exchange studies in University Sains Malaysia with my girlfriend, but also because I did two master's theses.
That was because the first thesis was declared "so secret it can never be published". The supervising professor (Ilkka Haikala) tried to negotiate that "maybe if I could accidentally lose it before putting it to a time-locked safe for 10 years", but the company I did the work for didn't allow it.
It was a kind of a predecessor to blockchains, where a centralized logging server signs distributed actions as it logs them, so that these actions are only accepted by the distributed systems if they have been signed and thus confirmed that the action was logged. It was a basis for a vast network of unmanned, remotely administered point-of-sale terminals, and included work procedures for secure keying, administration APIs and all that.
My second MSc thesis is public and was about distributed context-dependent, real-time service platform for cars based on #XMPP and #SemanticWeb, "Carbook": https://trepo.tuni.fi/bitstream/handle/123456789/20515/Keski-Valkama.pdf?sequence=3&isAllowed=y
@timdobbs
think of it this way: if you were a compan(y/ies) in a booming mode of industry that depends on some kaleidoscope of information asymmetries, the very last thing you would want is for people to be able to easily self-organize information at multiple scales - as was the initial vision.
so, the platform era is just beginning mid/late 2000s, what do you do? disrupt some syntaxes, influence some processes, privatize the commons, steer things in a more manageable direction...
#SemanticWeb
friends, do I reach anyone who knows of writing about the cognitive design of single bar search, it's relationship to expectations about access to/organization of information on the web, and its relationship in facilitating technologies like context infill via surveillance and structured query parsing via #SemanticWeb tech?
#STS, #MediaStudies, #HCI, or any critical socio technical perspective welcome :)
@J12t "JSON-LD has benefits that have nothing to do with semantic web stuff, such as namespacing."
The following is ground-zero fora #SemanticWeb constructed from structured data deployed using #LinkedData principles.
## JSON LD Start ##

}
## JSON LD End ##
@kidehen Not quite what I meant. JSON-LD has benefits that have nothing to do with semantic web stuff, such as namespacing. I'm not talking about those. Instead, I think I saw you posting earlier where you seemed to say that one can do amazing things (I'm paraphrasing, I might be wrong) with #semanticweb concepts (I guess triples). I presume there might be some related to triples in posted content, but it might also be in actor documents or such.
Hey @kidehen, who has the best explanation why #semanticweb markup in the #fediverse is much better than the alternative? Any pointers? I for one remain unconvinced, but happy to change my mind if compelling -- and real, not hypothetical "somebody could" if they haven't -- examples can be shown.
@bobwyman @J12t @datasniff Bearing in mind the abundance of publicly accessible #SPARQL Query Service endpoints, you can craft a query that satisfies the conditions of interest to you. In addition, you can just share a query URL for discussion, evaluation, and revision.
[1] https://linkeddata.uriburner.com -- 666,964,325 Triples (right now)
[2] http://lod.openlinksw.com/sparql -- 45 Billion Triples
[3] https://sparql.uniprot.org -- 100 Billion+ Triples
SPARQL Query Example: https://tinyurl.com/4kanhcd9
Thus far, I've showed you operations against what's in the underlying #DBMS.
Now, let say you want to progressively add more:
That's where sponging (an #ETL operation) comes into play.
Example:
Given a link that denotes a toot | tweet | post | document of interest, the following link-pattern will load or add to the underling DBMS hosted #KnowledgeGraph (or #SemanticWeb).
Text indexing happens too, in 5 min intervals.
/cc @J12t @datasniff
@bobwyman @J12t Regarding my understanding, I provided you with a very simple example for conversation expansion.
You can expand the examples below by just changing values in the links provided, courtesy of our @datasniff browser extension😀

[4] https://tinyurl.com/36y4cfk3 -- Benchmark
And there's more.
@bobwyman @J12t Yes, a #SemanticWeb user-agent can handle that.
For example, the sponger #middleware module of our #VirtuosoRDBMS can do that.
Re Prospective Search, the focal point is variables in the body of a #SPARQL query that satisfy conditions expressed in relations.
A query solution can always optionally include document identifiers (a/k/a named graphs).
Example: https://tinyurl.com/4kwzvu28
@bobwyman @J12t In addition, here are links to posts about the #VirtuosoRDBMS sponger module (our #SemanticWeb crawler) .
[1] https://medium.com/virtuoso-blog/what-is-the-virtuoso-sponger-middleware-about-and-why-is-it-important-293546b32a32 -- #VirtuosoRDBMS sponger (crawler) overview
This technology can crawl and merge data across links that denote hashtags across Mastodon instances, Twitter etc.. What it can't do is construct a canonical solution from an infinite universe of unknowns.
@bobwyman @J12t Prospective Search [1], is something that can be handled in a #SemanticWeb because the semantics of links (used to construct said #Web) enable a crawler to be fashioned within constrains (e.g., timeouts) while being informed navigationally by the semantics of relations denoted by links, courtesy of #LinkedData principles.
The above can happen within the context of a query or as an ETL-style background crawl.
IDK how i hadn't come across this before, but this is an excellent criticism of the politics of some elements of #SemanticWeb technologies, in particular the notion of "crowdsourcing" them (aka info conglomerates positioning themselves in such a way they can just farm the necessary labor for cheap or free)
Of "Working Ontologists" and "High-Quality Human Components" - The Politics of Semantic Infrastructures, by Doris Allhutter: https://digitalsts.net/essays/of-working-ontologists-and-high-quality-human-components/
@bobwyman @J12t Query solution informed by inference can include crawling a #SemanticWeb as part of a query solution production pipeline, I've been demonstrating that for eons now.
Crawling a #SemanticWeb is a different kind of crawl informed by the semantics of relations denoted by hyperlinks, courtesy of #LinkedData principles 😀
Note how @datasniff (a #SemanticWeb aware browser extension) lifts the text of a post straight into a machine-computable entity relationship graph constructed from hyperlinks (a/k/a #SemanticWeb).
The infrastructure is all in place, since the #Fediverse is already a Semantic Web.
/cc @J12t
Looking to relations is a practical option for solving this problem, since the entire #Fediverse is a #SemanticWeb enclave.
## RDF-Turtle Start ##

@eccentriccog @pluralistic It also is not even remotely related to what people think of what they say "#SemanticWeb" and is rarely if ever backed by, say, a graph database of attributes.

I am thinking of the experience of using pinterest, #tumblr, #pinboard #obsidian, etc. as kind of cross-platform extensions to feeds and online collections."
I was in particular thinking of the pinboards and are.na walls of scholars like @shannonmattern @lozross and @miriamkp, which I see as examples of a scholarly practice of using boards/hashtags to build archives of posts and links.
Open semantic data in this field would mean freeing data from the feeds in more sustainable ways, beyond public bookmarks. #reclaimyourarchive
Despite pouring over a lot of resources on this I can't really figure out what it is really for.
People talk about #VerifiableCredentials and #DecentralizedIdentifiers and things like that but #SemanticWeb structures are neither necessary nor sufficient to get the internet there.
Everything I find seems to go:
1. Everything on the internet everywhere gets correctly labeled and the internet becomes a giant graph database.
2. ???
3. Security, search, and interop are solved!
@hrefna it's anyone's guess why it never took off 😂
The ideas in the #SemanticWeb are so pretty and elegant and also just so… orthogonal to how people and technologes operate?
"We have this fantastic idea in how to represent the internet! It just requires everyone to use correct labeling for everything, websites to be constantly online, and for every system to be ready to resolve a potentially infinite degree of dependencies at runtime!"
Am I… missing something?
@KevinMarks @reiver @helge @atomicpoet @judell From my vantage point, they are all good! If I have any issues, I just get them sorted inside our [@openlink] respective implementations.
#Webfinger, #ActivityStreams, and #ActivityPub have collectively enabled the #Fediverse. That's a very good thing++ in my world of data access, integration, and management that makes full use of the awesome power of a #SemanticWeb 😀

@mauve The @openlink Structured Data Sniffer (@datasniff) Browser Extension tackles this issue, but from a structured data access and visualization perspective.
Steps:
1. Download & Install
2. Visit a #Fediverse page
3. Click on "doggie" Icon to activate and enjoy what a #SemanticWeb unleashes
Ultimately, it could evolve to also handle different visualization sources via registered #Fediverse clients etc..
I think I've finally seen the light of the #SemanticWeb.
I think web browsers should give users a way to register apps to handle displaying certain #RDF schema types.
E.g. if I open an ActivityStream URL, the browser should load my preferred client in the same way that clicking a PDF in my filesystem will open up my PDF viewer.
Users would then be able to bring their own interfaces to data instead of relying on some closed source proprietary app interface.
Also opens the door to mixing data
