AI won't scale without trusted data, says Infosys executive

A big company called Infosys helps other companies use artificial intelligence, which we call AI.

A leader at Infosys named Joydeep Mukherjee says AI works best when it has good, trustworthy information to learn from.

Only about 13 out of every 100 companies are confident that their information is ready for AI.

That means many companies need to organise their data before they can use AI well.

AI can do some jobs much faster, like finding the cause of a computer problem in one day instead of five days.

It can also help with tasks such as checking insurance claims and stopping fraud at banks.

But people still need to check the AI's work and make the final decisions.

Mukherjee says keeping information safe from hackers must be part of the plan from the start.

Most companies worry about AI risks, but very few meet the highest safety standards yet.

So the article tells companies to prepare their data carefully and keep humans in charge.
