Raw Data with Rob Collie30 Heinä 2024

Knowing WHAT Formula You Need is More Important than Knowing HOW to Write It

Ever feel like everyone's got an opinion on AI these days? Rob and Justin sure do, and in this episode of Raw Data, they're not afraid to call it as they see it.

Fresh off Rob's solo deep dive into AI, they sit down to unpack the good, the bad, and the overhyped in the world of artificial intelligence. No jargon, no buzzwords - just straight talk about what AI can (and can't) do.

From chatbots that sound eerily human to the reality of AI "hallucinations," Rob and Justin break it all down in a way that actually makes sense. They're not here to sell you on AI being the next big thing or convince you it's all smoke and mirrors. Instead, they offer a refreshingly honest take on where AI shines and where it falls flat.

Want to know how AI might change your job? Rob and Justin dig into real-world examples, from call centers to coding. Power BI folks, there's something in here for you too - turns out AI might be a game-changer for some tasks, but it's not gunning for your job just yet.

By the end of the episode, you'll have a clearer picture of what AI means for you, your work, and the world at large. No tech degree required - just bring your curiosity and maybe a healthy dose of skepticism.
