RIP BI Dashboards. Tools like Tableau and PowerBI are about to become extinct. This is what's coming (and how to prepare):

I've never been a fan of Tableau and PowerBI. Static dashboards don't answer dynamic business questions. That's why a new breed of analytics is coming: AI Analytics.

@mdancho84 AI doesn’t replace BI. It replaces clicking. But the moment the underlying schema is messy, the AI becomes confidently wrong. Data modeling just became even more important.

@SQL_feed @mdancho84 Alright also, semantic models require iterations with the business, and sometimes they don’t really know what they want either. Let’s not assume the business knows. Many times they’re lost and we have to help them. AI won’t replace this modeling work.

@chocodonte @mdancho84 100% agree. The hardest part isn’t SQL or AI, it’s aligning on definitions. AI only works if the semantic layer is right.
