In this episode of the McKinsey on AI podcast miniseries, McKinsey's David DeLallo and Jeni Tennison, CEO of the Open Data Institute (ODI), discuss the promise and pitfalls of open data. They explore ways that applications of open data can benefit society and consider efforts to preserve data security and privacy, promote data discovery, and ensure the quality of open data. David DeLallo: Data--it's the lifeblood of the AI techniques used most often today. Most organizations have plenty of data within their veritable walls to fuel AI applications that improve areas from operations to product offerings. But it's the sharing of data across organizations that could unlock huge benefits for society.
