Kudos to Eric Siegel for this article. Love "do you have an AI strategy question makes as much sense as do you have an Excel strategy question".

Success in #data #analytics driven business capabilities requires 5 key competencies: strategy, people, process, data, technology. Here's Forrester research on the "people" part of the success equation forrester.com/report/data-dr…

Conversational UI on data is becoming another #datademocratization tool. But I still don’t see a bright future for #NLQ without a pro #HITL. Most business pros struggle w verbalizing data / analytics requirements. This is mostly a #dataliteracy, not a tech challenge. Thoughts?

Obviously the only correct answer to my question is "it depends". Still, how does the following sound: u need 1 data/analytics pro to support ~10 "power" business users, then in turn each one of these is needed to support ~10 (+/- 20%) casual business users. Reactions? #analytics

“To flagrantly bastardize a popular Zen koan: If a data point sits in a data center and never impacts a decision, does it have value? The answer is unambiguously “no.”” By Brandon from Forrester forrester.com/report/connect… #businessintelligence #AI #analytics

50% of organizations deploy 4 or more #businessintelligence platforms (that % has been gyrating between 50% and 60% over the last few years). How many does your organization deploy? forms.office.com/r/cLaYLs3ZGg Forrester

In the age of #generativeAI #genAI #NLQ is no longer just Natural Language to Query (eg, it could be natural language to #Python). Is NLQ now Natural Language data Questions? linkedin.com/posts/bevelson… #businessintelligence
