| | | Back in the day, our main source of data was newspapers. Anyone who took the time to, for example, pore over the sports sections of years of newspapers to amass a trove of sport-specific data had mined gold. With most newspapers fully digitized (i.e. all years), the non exclusivity of electronic data, and of course with the emergence of AI, all of this can be recreated in an instant... to the nth degree.
In order to monetize data, you have to control most of it. That's what AI is all about. To the nth degree. Everything you search on your computer, confide to a personal robot, scan at the supermarket, etc. will all be owned by one company... and that includes your cell phone data, your car data, and every facial recognition image of you.
Some fun "data":
