In this episode of the Winning With Data podcast, Eva Murray and Alec Coughlin talk with Jake Schuster about how to set and manage expectations with data and clear up expectations that different departments have about what can be done with it. Eva and Alec both talk about ChatGPT and the emergence of AI into the public sector, as people understand the power of deep learning differently now with access to such tools. They mention how in the future, artificial intelligence should be used alongside humans in the workforce, as there are some tasks that humans are better at and some that machines are better at and each should focus on their own strengths.
