The true step change in our industry circa 2012 was around how we can use more data, rather than less, to produce better results. Without access to training data it would be challenging to make further progress in AI.
GDPR presents a challenge to current industry norms in that sense, but also creates a tremendous opportunity to find a sustainable solution that preserves privacy, compensates parties more efficiently for the use of their data, and reduces friction.
