An AI-Data Burden ParadoxMost organisations today are collecting more data than ever, but what was meant to be a competitive edge has become an operational bottleneck. Enterprises have spent years integrating cloud warehouses, cataloguing assets, and standing up pipelines. Yet for many, the result isn’t fluid access or insight velocity, it’s stack fatigue. The very infrastructure meant to liberate data often ends up making it harder to use.The promise of AI is to turn this around: to abstract away complexity, accelerate insight delivery, and shift data from a cost centre to a competitive advantage.
