Your LLM issues are really data issues
Ryan welcomes Harsha Chintalapani, co-founder and CTO at Collate and co-creator of Open Metadata, to the show to discuss why AI and LLMs struggle with real-time, structured production data. They explore how schema changes, inconsistent definitions (like “customer”), and weak governance can break both your analytics and MLs, and what companies can do to get their data AI-ready, from metadata management to observability.
Episode Notes:
Collate is a semantic intelligence platform built on a semantic metadata graph for discovery, governance, and AI observability across your data ecosystem.
