Generative AI has long since become part of everyday life: after ChatGPT and Gemini, more and more foundation models are entering the market, and hardly anyone today wants to do without them. With the rapid progress of algorithms, the underlying data can easily fade into the background. Even the latest chatbots are only as good as the data on which they are built.
While legal issues are being discussed in depth in some areas, data quality, data availability, and their strategic value often receive less attention than they deserve. This is exactly where the panel discussion begins: it explores the role of data in the age of AI from a range of different perspectives.
