Why AI May Spell the End of BI

Knownwell
About this episode

Are the days numbered for popular business intelligence tools like Tableau, Power BI, Looker, and Qlik?

In this episode of AI Knowhow, we talk about AI's transformative impact on data and analytics, exploring why traditional business intelligence tools may be approaching obsolescence. Knownwell CEO David DeWolf and Chief Product Officer Mohan Rao join CMO Courtney Baker to dive into the ways AI is shaping a new era, moving from static data reporting to dynamic, proactive intelligence that's reshaping business decision-making. They argue that as AI matures, its capabilities in real-time insight and contextual understanding will supersede what BI tools can offer, creating a future where intelligence—not just information—guides business.

In a compelling conversation with Max Votek of Customertimes, Chief Strategy Officer Pete Buer explores the American public's surprising optimism about AI in healthcare. Max reveals insights from a recent Customertimes study, highlighting the public's openness to AI diagnostics and potential improvements in efficiency and costs. The two also discuss the limits of AI in healthcare and why patients still prefer AI as a tool rather than a replacement for doctors.

All that PLUS a new segment, "In the Year 2032," where Courtney and Pete look at the World Economic Forum's take on AI's impact on the workforce, including predictions that up to 90% of jobs could be affected by AI within a decade. With high-level analysis and engaging discussions, this episode sheds light on how AI is reshaping industries and what leaders need to consider for the road ahead.
