The webinar titled “Data Governance for Generative AI,” hosted by EDM Council and Securiti, discussed the evolving landscape of AI governance and the integration of unstructured data management. The conversation was led by experts in the industry:

  • Jocelyn Houle, Sr. Director of Product Management, Securiti
  • Peter Wang, Staff Product Manager, Databricks
  • Moderator: Eric Bigelsen, Head of Industry Engagement, EDM Council

The discussion delved into the critical need for organizations to manage their data with precision, especially focusing on the challenges posed by unstructured data, which often comprises a significant portion of corporate data estates. The discussion highlighted the importance of advanced data management tools, like data command graphs and knowledge graphs, which help in understanding and utilizing unstructured data effectively. Jocelyn emphasized the regulatory aspects, noting the rapid pace at which AI-related regulations are emerging, and the necessity for businesses to stay agile and compliant.

A significant part of the webinar focused on the practical applications of AI in business, discussing how data governance must evolve beyond traditional models to include sophisticated AI-driven analytics and governance frameworks. The speakers explored the concept of model serving as a means to democratize AI tools across various business units, ensuring that AI solutions are scalable and accessible while remaining compliant with stringent data policies.

Peter’s commentary on the integration of governance infrastructures and the importance of maintaining a robust governance framework was particularly notable. He stated, “Whenever you’re going, whatever platform you might be using, make sure that that platform can integrate with the various data governance infrastructures…that policy is uniformly enforced across all your data platforms.” This quote encapsulates the webinar’s overarching theme of the need for cohesive and integrated approaches to data governance in the age of AI, highlighting the intersection of technology, policy, and business requirements.
