However, the research highlights that technical hurdles are undermining these initiatives:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Search for Context:<\/strong> 63% of organizations identify &#8220;finding relevant data,&#8221; within specific business contexts, as a primary barrier to AI deployment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Need for Real-Time Data: <\/strong>66% of respondents insist that AI data must be accessed in real time to be considered trustworthy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Security Paradox:<\/strong> 67% struggle to maintain consistent security and access controls across systems, a vital requirement for safe agentic operations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Scale and Complexity:<\/strong> The average enterprise AI initiative now pulls from <strong>over 400 data sources<\/strong>, with 20% of organizations juggling more than 1,000 sources.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Performance Bottlenecks:<\/strong> Nearly 60% of respondents report difficulty optimizing performance for the intensive workloads required by large-scale AI.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAI is rapidly shifting from systems that merely answer questions to systems that take autonomous action, and this transition changes the data requirement entirely,\u201d said <strong>Dominic Sartorio, vice president of Product Marketing at Denodo<\/strong>. \u201cWhen an AI agent triggers a business outcome, there is zero room for stale or ungoverned data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To scale agentic AI with confidence, businesses must move beyond static data silos and adopt a foundation of live, governed, and contextually relevant information.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report concludes that the &#8220;trust gap&#8221; is not a failure of AI models, but a reflection of the underlying data architecture. For organizations to move from experimental AI to automated scale, they must bridge the divide between their disparate data estates and the real-time requirements of agentic systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Download the Full Report<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a><\/a>Explore the complete findings of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.denodo.com\/en\/document\/analyst-report\/ai-trust-gap-report\"><em>AI Trust Gap Report<\/em><\/a> conducted by Arlington Research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Global Study of 850 Executives Also Finds That Fragmented Data Sources and Lack of Governance Are Stalling the Shift from AI Insights to AI Action Denodo, a leader in data management, today released the results of The AI Trust Gap Report, a comprehensive global study revealing that the next frontier of artificial intelligence &#8211; &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":86492,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[2725,5559],"class_list":["post-86491","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-denodo","tag-trust-gap"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.1 -
