❝ We are in the midst of the rise and evolution of Generative AI. Foundational AI continues to deliver reliable and valuable insights and Causal AI is on the horizon. What do these three pillars of AI have in common and require? Data, and an immense amount of it, and not just a one-time infusion, but an ongoing flood of data to keep all these models working at the optimal level. I am so pleased that Scott Burk and Kinshuk Dutta took on the challenge of writing a book that dives into how to obtain, clean, integrate, and use data in this rapidly evolving landscape of Al. Having worked with Scott, I know first-hand his abilities and capabilities in working with all types of data. If you are interested in learning world-class best practices of preparing data for use in your AI environment, this book will be an invaluable resource for your journey into the multifaceted world of data for AI.
