artificial intelligence — so has the term and use of the
word “data” evolved.

Words like “data,” “quantitative analysis,” “Big Data,”and
“AI” may be frightening if you work in a non-technical
environment. Don’t be alarmed! Data doesn’t have to be
difficult to understand. Data is critical information that

can do with it, and how it relates to business services:

Data can be used to help people live better lives. The
most important reasons to use data are to improve
efficiency and quality of services and processes. When
used appropriately, data can be a valuable asset in
enhancing one’squality of life.

2. Make Informed Decisions

information sets to use qualitatively. Knowledge is
derived from the collection and analysis of accurate
information. Therefore, a lack of data can lead to
inaccurate conclusions that are based on anecdotal
evidence,assumptions, or a preliminary observation.
