Why 90% of Your Data Isn't AI-Ready | CDO Matters BONUS

Most CDOs are still measuring AI readiness with a BI-readiness checklist and it's costing them. 80 to 90 percent of enterprise data is unstructured, sitting outside every governance program built over the last three decades.📌 In this episode:The split Malcolm calls "the world of measurement vs. the world of meaning" and why Gen AI lives entirely in the latterWhy only 25% of the data feeding AI models today is actually governed (per Dresner Research)Why a product manager and a value engineer might matter more right now than any new governance policyWhy the 30-year-old model of data ownership breaks down in an AI-driven world and what it needs to become instead💬 The takeaway: "You get budgets of millions of dollars to solve this problem but every day we disempower ourselves by saying 'garbage in, garbage out.'"About the host: Malcolm Hawker is a former Gartner analyst, Chief Data Officer at Profisee, Editor-in-Chief of CDO Matters on Substack, and host of the CDO Matters Podcast.
