Panel: The living nature of data: exploring the Lifecycle and Management of Data at Scale
Alan Descoins, Fabiana Clemente, Yucheng Low, David Aronchick

As we continue to witness the exponential growth of data generation, especially with the proliferation of IoT devices, widespread deploy of LLMs, and synthetic data, it is essential to understand the dynamic nature of data and its lifecycle. This panel will delve into the living nature of data, exploring its various stages, from creation to effective processing, augmentation, and beyond: we will discuss tools, experiences and trends to look out for in 2023.
