A note in the margins

My commentary on something from elsewhere on the web.

AI obstacles—there’s no data:

In order to get a nice standardized dataset that you can “do AI to” (or even “do basic statistics/data analysis to”) you need to:

  1. obtain the data
  2. digitize the data (if relevant)
  3. standardize/ “clean” the data
  4. set up computational infrastructure to store, query, and serve the data

Most industries have obstacles in place that prevent this.
