However, jumping on the AI bandwagon with caution might be a good idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For all its benefits and near-magical abilities, there are still several issues when it comes to successfully deploying AI in QA:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"25-%E2%99%A6%EF%B8%8F-data-quality-and-standardization-barriers\"> \u2666\ufe0f Data quality and standardization barriers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>AI systems rely heavily on historical data to learn and make predictions.
