AI and new standards promise to make scientific data more useful by making it reusable and accessible

Every time a scientist runs an experiment, or a social scientist does a survey, or a humanities scholar analyzes a text, they generate data. Science runs on data—without it, we wouldn't have the James Webb Space Telescope's stunning images, disease-preventing vaccines or an evolutionary tree that traces the lineages of all life.
