-Microsoft Purview data governance solutions leverage AI and modern technologies to ensure data quality, security, and compliance while also accelerating value creation. Before going into the descriptions of these solutions, it's important to understand some key principles and concepts associated with data governance.
+With the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) across businesses, data governance is more important than ever. AI systems depend on trusted, high-quality data to produce accurate insights and support sound business decisions. When AI models ingest poorly governed data—data that's incomplete, inconsistent, or mislabeled—the results are unreliable. At the same time, evolving regulations around AI use add new requirements for how organizations manage and protect their data. Good data governance helps you meet those requirements while also making sure your data is ready for AI workloads.
