Empowers business leaders and IT professionals with a deep understanding of the capabilities, challenges, and capacity of AI-driven data solutions.

"Privacy, Ethics, Security, Intellectual Property, Business, and Humanity may have seemed like disjointed ideas, disciplines, or silos. With the advent of AI and ML, these concepts must join and be operationalized to harness great promise and prevent terrible harm. Justin and Mario's book provides guidance and starting points for exploring and building. The time is now, and the tool is in your hands."
- Michelle Finneran Dennedy, CEO, Privacy Code (Prior CPO for Cisco Systems)

This book explores the rapidly evolving intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and data management. By highlighting best practices, case studies, and future trends, it provides a roadmap for organizations striving to harness AI’s power in managing and leveraging their data for competitive advantage. This roadmap encompasses the monitoring, detection, and response required in areas of AI security, risk management, ethics, privacy, ethics, and regulations.

At the confluence of artificial intelligence and data management lies a transformative potential that promises to redefine the future of business, governance, and innovation.

Through expert insights, real-world examples, and forward-thinking analyses, we embark on a journey to explore the transformative power of AI in data management, the ethical considerations it brings forth, and the strategic imperatives for businesses in the AI era. It’s not just about understanding technology—it’s about envisioning a future where data, powered by AI, becomes the cornerstone of decision-making, strategy, and value creation, from the practitioner to the Board of Directors.
