This week Tim and Juan are on the road. Instead of taking a break, they will be commenting and ranting about their latest observations in the data world: data products, semantics, AI, knowledge graphs, governance, and so much more.

Barr Moses, CEO & Co-Founder of Monte Carlo, challenges the notion that models alone create competitive advantage, arguing instead that the real moat lies in how organizations manage their proprietary data and ensure end-to-end reliability. Tim and Juan chat with Barr to get the Honest, No-BS scoop of what AI observability is (hint, it’s really data + AI) and how organizations can build resilient AI applications.
