There’s an underlying belief that artificial intelligence (AI) can magically make sense of mounting piles of unstructured data. Chief Data Officers (CDOs) need to develop a strong opinion about what the organization can do with AI and communicate that opinion to business leaders.
According to Vishal Gupta, a Vice President at Everest Group, to successfully implement generative AI, you’ll need a combination of proprietary and external data. Therefore, CDOs who wish to build a strong foundation for generative AI need to actively invest in data strategy, architecture, and cleansing capabilities.
