  "account": "To build reliable AI applications, executives at Inc42’s ‘The CTO Summit 2026’ in Bengaluru emphasized the importance of up-to-date information and clear rules on data access. The panel discussion, 'Building The Data Foundation For AI At Scale', featured executives from PhonePe, OceanBase, and Fibe. PhonePe's chief engineer, Kisalay Ranjan, highlighted the need to ensure high-quality data and control its use across databases and warehouses. Data should be stored in a single authoritative source and its sensitivity and compliance should be known, he said. Bhanu Jamwal from OceanBase advocated for a unified data layer to make information easily accessible to AI agents with minimal delay. Fibe’s CTO, Anil Sinha, focused on extracting useful information from varied document formats using generative AI to enhance its credit model. He stressed the balance between AI model performance and cost. Razorpay’s SVP of engineering, Prabhu Ram, cautioned that AI cannot compensate for weak engineering foundations, such as inadequate monitoring and problem detection systems.",
