Gartner, Inc. has highlighted the top trends impacting the future of data science and machine learning (DSML). These trends include the move to cloud data ecosystems, the growth of edge AI, the emergence of explainable AI, the use of generative AI, and the need for ethical AI. Organizations should evaluate data ecosystems based on their ability to resolve distributed data challenges, as well as to access and integrate with data sources outside of their immediate environment. Edge AI helps organizations improve the development, orchestration, integration and deployment of AI, while explainable AI helps to explain the decisions made by AI systems. Generative AI is being used to create new data, while ethical AI is needed to ensure AI is used responsibly.
