An Executive Dinner by GEN - The Global Executive Network is an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas with experts and peers and discuss the latest and most important trends for a specific industry-related or management-focused topic.
This Executive Dinner is created to discuss "Machine Learning and AI: The Hype is Real When it Comes to Data" in a high-level peer-to-peer environment. This exclusive event is limited to a number of 18–22 executive guests and participation is always free of charge.
Why does data need AI and AI need data? Virtually every business is planning or executing a major digital transformation involving new business models, new technologies, and new processes. There are several essential ingredients for a successful digital transformation. Data is one of them – data is a critical foundation for every successful digital transformation.
In the world of data, we are experiencing not just the usual level of change. We are in the midst of a generational market disruption that we call Data 3.0. The sheer amount of data available for decision making can overwhelm the human mind. Not only is it hard to keep up with the data, we can’t even keep up with the questions we should be asking. Which is why, in addition to expertise and processes around data, we need machine learning and AI.
Even the simplest questions are hard to answer
When it comes to building the data foundation for digital transformation, there are many simple questions that most companies struggle to answer:
The growth of Cloud and Big Data platforms has made these questions even harder to answer. These platforms are providing powerful data processing capabilities to virtually every employee at relatively low cost. And employees are embracing these capabilities rapidly. How can an enterprise maintain control over its data in such a fast-growth environment?
This is where machine learning comes in. It’s not the pursuit of a perfect answer. It’s the search for a good enough answer — the best we can find today, further refined with new data tomorrow.
Another area where AI and ML are becoming more and more relevant is by enhancing the usability of tools to work with data. AI and ML can help provide recommendations on how to cleanse or integrate data, or even automatically create data curation processes. This also significantly increases productivity and allows even more people in the organization to be involved in data management (self service).
At this dinner discussion, we will discuss the topics above and any other questions you may have, as well as highlight how a business can apply AI to its business data by starting small and growing fast.
