In the rapidly evolving domain of artificial intelligence (AI), the proper use and reliability of data have become increasingly significant, with data governance and data quality emerging as critical cornerstones. Data quality is not simply about preventing “garbage in, garbage out” scenarios but rather understanding and sustainably managing the changes to mission-critical data that powers and enriches AI models. Data governance is instrumental in ensuring that the data feeding these models is appropriate, accurate, and relevant, thereby enabling reliable and ethical AI outcomes.
Register for this webinar in which experts from Databricks and Collibra, along with TDWI’s VP of research, Fern Halper, will take a deep dive into the larger concept of data governance with AI. This includes a framework for establishing effective controls to protect data privacy, ensuring data integrity, monitoring data used with models intelligently for trends and errors, and maintaining transparency and accountability. Topics include:
- The evolving data and analytics landscape with AI driving the need for data governance
- Pillars of an effective data governance strategy
- Data quality and reliability as a key part of data governance
- Putting data governance to work in enterprises leveraging AI, including organizational and technical requirements
