Data gravity: Centralizing data for generative AI and innovation [Video]

With the exponential growth of data, the pace of innovation and evolving governance needs, the concept of data gravity becomes more pressing than ever.

Enterprises face the critical decision of whether to centralize their data or adopt an open format, particularly as generative artificial intelligence continues to advance. Choosing the right data gravity center is crucial in navigating this complex landscape, according to Tony Cyriac (pictured), managing director of data and AI – North America banking and capital markets at Accenture PLC.

“Everybody’s vying for what I call the center of gravity of data for the organization,” Cyriac said. “This is a landscape we’re working through. There’s a big question for organizations to decide and say, ‘What’s my center of gravity for data? Do I need one?’ Center of gravity doesn’t mean you put all the data there, but you at least need to know that there is a reasonable amount of …
