  • #845: Bright Data Chief Product Officer Ariel Shulman on why access to real-time web data is critical in the age of autonomous AI
    Apr 17 2026
    We talk endlessly about the power of AI models, but what happens when the public web data they rely on is incomplete, outdated, or just plain wrong? Agility requires not just reacting to market changes, but anticipating them by having a clear, real-time view of the world.

Today, we're going to talk about the foundational element that will determine the winners and losers in the age of AI: access to high-quality, real-time web data.
