What's in a name? If you're an AI pulling from a massive data set, everything. This week on Information Risk podcast, Doug and David discuss semantic interoperability, its challenges, and implications across various industries. If 'PE' means 'physical examination' in one record set and 'pulmonary embolism' in another, it could spell serious trouble for a patient, especially if an AI system doesn't know the difference. David Loshin breaks down the complexities of data sharing, standardization, and the need for universal terminology in fields like healthcare and retail.
