The French writer Albert Camus believed our existence was absurd. He compared the human condition to Sisyphus, the mythical Greek king condemned to roll a boulder uphill, only to see it roll back down, for eternity. Incredibly, Camus imagines Sisyphus, returning to his labors at the foot of the mountain, as happy, having found meaning in his task. That is the nature of existential rebellion, to find meaning for yourself in a universe that provides none.

While CDOs and data leaders are excited about generative AI, they have much work to do to get ready for it.

It’s a simple but common truth: teams that don’t collaborate and communicate won’t consistently innovate. Innovation at scale requires open channels of dialogue to ensure speed and accuracy, but that can’t happen when teams work in silos — especially when it’s between product development and manufacturing. These two teams are integral to product success, and they must leverage each other's expertise and perspectives, which can negatively impact innovation and problem-solving capabilities.
