Artificial Intelligence needs data to be properly trained. A lot of data. Currently, it’s estimated that 90% of the data generated globally is unstructured. This makes high-quality structured data expensive and hard to obtain in a useful timeframe. As a result, data scientists often end up scrubbing their own data, which can take up to 80% of their time, and is the least-enjoyable part of the process since data preparation distracts from their core function as a scientist. It has never been so easy to get datasets to train voice recognition systems or chatbots accurately.

We are excited to announce that IBM Watson Studio is partnering with DefinedCrowd, an industry leader in data annotation. DefinedCrowd’s intelligent data infrastructure will enable Watson Studio users to collect, enrich and structure high-quality data for performing AI at scale. These integrated technologies will create a seamless, one-stop solution that combines human intelligence and machine learning capabilities to accelerate enterprise AI initiatives.
