In this episode, we explore the 2025 OMG Semantic Augmentation Challenge—a call for practical solutions that use standardized metadata to close the elusive "semantic gap." Bill Hoffman, OMG's Chairman & CEO, and Two Sigma’s Jim Ward and Scott Affens, dive into why this challenge matters for data-driven enterprises.

Tune in to hear why this challenge could unlock the next leap in intelligent systems.
