Super Data Science: ML & AI Podcast with Jon Krohn
Deep Dive
What is Nexus Cognitive and how does it help enterprises with AI implementation?
Nexus Cognitive is a composable and agnostic organization that modernizes data and AI infrastructure, enabling enterprises to achieve AI-powered outcomes at speed, value, and scale. It uses a modular approach with its Nexus One control plane and managed service offerings to simplify integrations and deliver outcomes within days or weeks.
What is Acceldata and how does its data observability platform contribute to AI success?
Acceldata is a data observability platform that ensures enterprises provide trusted, high-quality data to AI models, whether structured or unstructured. It monitors data quality and characteristics throughout the pipeline, proactively preventing issues like model drift and ensuring data accuracy for AI predictions.
Why are small data errors significant in AI models, and how can enterprises prevent them?
Small data errors can lead to significant financial losses for enterprises, as they impact the accuracy of AI models used for critical decisions like loan approvals. Enterprises can prevent these errors by using data observability platforms that detect issues early in the data pipeline, ensuring high-quality data feeds into AI models.
What is the importance of infrastructure agnosticism in AI and data management?
Infrastructure agnosticism allows enterprises to avoid being locked into a single cloud vendor or super scaler, enabling flexibility in choosing compute and storage solutions. This is crucial as the cost driver in data management is shifting from storage to compute, and enterprises need the optionality to use multiple vendors for better outcomes.
What is data governance, and how is it evolving in the context of AI?
Data governance involves managing how data is used within an enterprise, ensuring security, privacy, and compliance with regulations. It is evolving from a centralized, committee-driven process to a more decentralized approach where governance is integrated with data observability, allowing rules and policies to be applied dynamically wherever data is being used.
