The Death of Dashboards and the Birth of Natural Language Analytics

As generative AI models advance, we are witnessing a paradigm shift in how we interface with data. This talk explores the transformative potential of natural language analytics, powered by text-to-SQL and context-aware pipelines. We will demonstrate how these cutting-edge techniques enable users to effortlessly query databases, model data, cluster events, and visualize insights with a single prompt (or multiple prompts for data exploration and follow up). The talk will also address the security and agency risks associated with these methods, such as prompt injection vulnerabilities and excessive agency delegation to LLM-based systems. Join us to learn how natural language analytics is set to revolutionize data analysis. Does the advent of these techniques spell the end of traditional dashboards?
