Feed: Featured Blog Posts - Data Science Central. Author: Andreas Blumauer. Tips Don't try to put the cart before the horse: realize that efficient data preparation (and thus interoperable standards) and data quality, especially in the enterprise environment, are a basic requirement for all applications of artificial intelligence. The development of competences and experts in the field of artificial intelligence must take place at least parallel to the process of every technological decision, but not at the end of the implementation of an AI strategy. Outsourcing must not be part of this strategy. ‘Not to boil the ocean’, in other ... Read More
