According to a recent research report by MIT, 95% of AI projects fail to show positive ROI and don’t move beyond pilot stage.

AI projects start with ambition but most end in stagnation. The reasons are: AI that doesn’t learn, AI that isn’t aware of live business context, and AI that produces results its human users don’t trust. The root cause of all of this? Data. Lack of access to live data, the right data, or well governed data.

When data strategy and AI strategy are not aligned, AI projects fail. This disconnect is widespread and needs to change.

AI decides what data it needs at the time it needs it. Business users and AI teams need to collaborate across a single, intelligent data layer that actually makes sense to them. Trust, privacy, and compliance are baked in, not bolted on, and managed consistently across all your data. AI consumes fresh data smartly, safely, and at lightning speed.

Discussion

Topics

Everyone says GenAI is about models. In your experience - was the real problem actually your data?

Are we bringing data to AI or bringing AI to trusted data? Which approach survives long-term?

How do you stop governance from killing AI - without letting AI kill governance?

What decisions will you never allow AI to make - even when it becomes statistically better than people?
