Further Details:
As foundation models revolutionize artificial intelligence, the critical role of their underlying data has become increasingly apparent. Less than 1% of enterprise data has been used to train popular large language models, yet we expect that LLMs contribute to business decisions and business results.
This presentation explores how data governance, quality and observability serves as the bedrock of reliable AI systems, examining the intricate relationship between input data integrity and model performance.
Drawing from real-world examples, we demonstrate how establishing trusted data pipelines directly correlates with the reliability and trustworthiness of AI outputs, ultimately determining the success or failure of model deployments.
