Week 5- AI vs. Human Expertise

 A New York Times article about the CEO of Klarna, Sebastian Siemiatkowski, and his proclamations around artificial intelligence (AI) supplanting human contributors underscores an ongoing trend among tech companies. According to Siemiatkowski, AI has the potential to free staff from repetitive work, enabling people to concentrate on more important tasks. But critics say those kinds of comments are often just ways for companies to grab investor attention, especially with Klarna looking toward an IPO. This conversation is part of larger questions over the role of A.I. in transforming the job market—if it makes things work better or simply replaces jobs.

Chapter 6 of "Discovering Data" mentions spreadsheet and business intelligence tools such as Tableau and how data visualization techniques can help convert that raw data into usable information, as discussed in this chapter. In contrast to the Klarna CEO’s fixation on AI-enabled automation, this chapter reinforces that businesses can find useful intelligence in data without necessarily displacing human workers. Data literacy and analytical skills, in turn, will continue to be essential for working effectively with AI and automation—ensuring that technology enhances rather than replaces human capabilities.

Generative AI vs Predicitve AI

Image
 Generative AI and predictive AI are the two primary forms of artificial intelligence driving today's technological advancements. The newer of the two, generative AI, is built to produce outputs in response to user-generated prompts, providing images, text, and even code. Generative AI has become widely accessible, empowering users and leveling the playing field across various industries. Predictive AI, often referred to as traditional AI, analyzes historical data to forecast future outcomes, with applications ranging from stock market predictions to self-driving cars. While generative AI is what we see so much of in our daily lives, predictive AI is the underlying technology that drives most of what generative AI does. Predictive AI is built using this topology of neural networks and deep data learning, where systems find patterns and make decisions based on huge data sets. These capabilities have disrupted multiple industries, from marketing and inventory management to computer v...

Week 7: Harnessing Data and AI: The Future of Decision-Making in the Workplace

Image
     Tableau empowers users to harvest patterns, trends, and relationships in data that are relatively likely to go undetected with a layman's analysis. Data visualization makes data more approachable, leading to better decision-making, more effective communication of findings, and improved operations. The chapter also notes that effective visualizations can lend credibility, enabling professionals to make data-driven cases clearly. Tableau is a very essential tool of UI in the present workplace, as simple practical examples of analyzing the trends of UFO sightings and share market trends have shown that the intuitive interface of Tableau, wherein the user can improve data representation in the form of different appealing charts, dashboards, and dynamic reports.      Artificial intelligence (AI) computerizes assignments, improves choices, and offers prescriptive bits of knowledge in addition to information visualization. AI is speeding up change in the work...
