  Goldman Sachs data chief says AI facing ‘training data shortage’: ‘I think the real interesting thing is going to be…’ The artificial intelligence (AI) industry is confronting a critical shortage of high-quality training data, a constraint that may already be shaping the next generation of AI systems, Neema Raphael, Goldman Sachs' chief data officer and head of data engineering, has said. “We've already run out of data,” Raphael stated, noting that this deficit is forcing companies to increasingly rely on synthetic data—machine-generated text, images, and code. Raphael made the assertion on the bank's "Exchanges" podcast, confirming a growing industry suspicion that the readily available data on the open web has been exhausted.

The impossible choice between two people you love, two paths you value, two duties that cannot both be fulfilled. These are just a few of the genuine crises that stop us in our tracks and demand: What now? Five thousand years ago, Arjuna faced such a moment. Standing between two armies on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, the greatest warrior of his time found himself paralyzed. Before him stood his grandfather, his teacher, his cousins - people he loved, people who had raised him. Yet duty demanded he fight them. His hands trembled. His bow slipped. This was beyond theoretical philosophy - it was real loss, real moral agony, real impossibility. Facing hard times in life? Teachings from the Bhagavad Gita to help overcome struggles and navigate challenges What Lord Krishna taught him in that moment became the Bhagavad Gita - wisdom for navig...
