5 Minute Friday - Uncle Rico
5 Minute Friday - Uncle RicoDescription
Uncle Rico is a character in the movie Napoleon Dynamite, who is stuck in the past, reminiscing about his days as a high school football star. If only he'd won the game and went to the state championship. Some of the data industry reminds me of Uncle Rico.
During a recent panel, there was a question about whether AI can help with data management (governance, modeling, etc).
Some people were quick to dismiss this, saying that machines are no substitute for humans in their understanding and translating of "the business" to data.
Yet why are we still perpetually stuck in the mode of "80% of data projects fail"? Might AI/ML help data management move out of its rut? Or will it stay stuck in the past?
