[RECORDED] No AI Without IA: How Regulated Enterprises Can Scale AI Safely and Intelligently

Written by Earley Information Science Team | Aug 28, 2025 10:47:59 PM

As AI gains traction in regulated industries, organizations face a critical challenge: meaningful outcomes depend on information that is structured, governed, and trustworthy. In this session, Seth Earley is joined by Fieran Mason-Blakley and Vikal Kapoor for a practical discussion on why information architecture is the foundation for safe, compliant, and scalable AI.

Together, they explore why AI often fails in regulated environments, how Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) can be deployed with compliant data, and the role of metadata, taxonomy, and governance in ensuring accountability and traceability.

Key themes from the webinar include:

  • Why AI initiatives stall without robust information architecture

  • How to align RAG and compliance requirements

  • The importance of metadata and taxonomy for explainable AI

  • Practical steps to connect IA and AI strategies

The conversation is forward-looking yet grounded in real-world needs, offering clear guidance for IT and business leaders navigating AI adoption in highly regulated environments.
