AI-ready and FAIR data, workflows, and models

The adoption of AI in science is increasing across most scientific fields, from engineering to life, earth, and social sciences, as well as the humanities. To be prepared, we need to go beyond FAIR data (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) and ensure that the data we use is ready, adequate, and well-documented for the new AI-based research workflows, and is described appropriately for transparency and reproducibility of our findings. This talk will discuss the implementation of the FAIR principles on AI-ready data, workflows, and models, and introduce AI readiness in the context of open science.
