Your guide to protecting data from AI

Technology

In this advance-level digital world, everything you post online could be used to train artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Companies like ChatGPT and Google's Gemini are using vast amounts of data to power their AI creations. However, there are some proven steps that you can take to regain control over your data and protect your privacy. Let us start with the basics. Tech giants have been collecting tons of data from the internet to fuel their AI projects. Unfortunately, this often happens without much thought for the rights of people who created that content or for privacy laws. Your posts could end up being used to train AI models or even sold to other companies without your knowledge. But there is a hope on the horizon. Some companies are now giving users the option to opt o...

Non-invasive data governance for modern organizations

Technology

In the ever-changing world of data, analytics, and AI, having a solid data governance program is no longer a luxury. It is now a must-have. Renowned consultant Robert Seiner introduces a transformative approach called non-invasive data governance. It is a method that he has honed over two decades while collaborating with organizations worldwide. Seiner's groundbreaking perspective, shared in his 2014 book "Non-Invasive Data Governance: The Path of Least Resistance and Greatest Success," challenges traditional norms. Unlike top-down or build-it-and-hope-they-come approaches, the non-invasive data governance works with existing accountability structures. Instead of piling on new roles, it optimizes the effectiveness of individuals' current responsibilities, making it less intimidating...

Unleashing power of unbiased data with DGIST

Technology

In the fast-evolving world of artificial intelligence (AI), data collection serves as the bedrock for building advanced machine learning models. Yet, this seemingly straightforward task is fraught with the potential to introduce unintended texture biases. When an AI model is trained on biased data and then applied to out-of-distribution data, its performance can take a dramatic hit. The root and impact of these biases need to be carefully addressed. Countless studies have sought to mitigate or eliminate these biases. Earlier research efforts proposed techniques like adversarial learning to extract bias-independent features, enabling models to fulfill their intended classification tasks without relying on biased data. However, despite these promising efforts, decoupling biased features thro...

How to counter shadow data governance

Technology

Shadow IT is a term used when IT is not involved in technology and invokes incorrect or different reactions based on who one asks. In fact, it is also a shortcut implemented by developers to get agile workflows. Lately, big organizations are seeking to close such a gap and increase awareness against it. Developers have learned the ways to deliver tools to match the needs. Causes of Shadow Data Governance Shadow data governance occurs when data analysts or data scientists make a copy of the data from the IT-approved primary database to run the tools in their different environments. Many fail to get the IT approvals. The question here arises of how to address the shadow data governance challenge. Understanding the root causes is important. Big corporate houses spend heavily to s...

How to Copy Between Hard Drives

Technology

Eventually every computer user considers upgrading or replacing their hard drive. At the same time most people want to avoid the trouble associated with reinstalling the computer's operating system and backing up all of the old data. For many, copying the data from hard drive to hard drive is the most logical and easiest way to upgrade a computer hard drive. Doing so can be a challenge to those that are unfamiliar with the inner workings of a computer system but luckily hard drives have come a long way in recent years and the process of upgrading and copying files from drive to drive is no longer cause to take the computer into the repair shop. Preparing To Copy Files From One Hard Drive To Another The new, blank hard drive must be connected to the computer via an IDE or SATA cab...

Best Data Recovery Tips

Technology

Nowadays, we exchange thousands of terabytes of data in each and every day. If you lost your previous data that are stored on any device like a computer, mobile phone, laptop, memory card, etc then it can be very difficult to restore. Data is valuable for every person because most of the people gather their every memorable moment in the form of pictures and videos and many people store notes, documents on their devices. So, these collections are special or most important part of their life for all the human beings. But, as you all know that everything is possible. So, restoring process of deleted or corrupted data is also possible in these days. With the help of data recovery software, you can do this method and restore your data within a short period of time. Data recovery is the proce...
