Because it’s so different from traditional software development, where the risks are more or less well-known and predictable, AI rewards people and companies that are willing to take intelligent risks, and that have (or can develop) an experimental culture. If you can’t walk, you’re unlikely to run.

It’s all about using data to get a clearer understanding of reality so that your company can make more strategically sound decisions (instead of relying only on gut instinct or corporate inertia). Ultimately, business intelligence and analytics are about much more than the technology used to gather and analyze data.

You got me, I am ignoring all the data layer and custom stuff! All that is great. For most of us, you plus the CMO/equivalent.].

We’ll unpack curiosity as a core attribute of effective data science, look at how that informs process for data science (in contrast to Agile, etc.), and dig into details about where science meets rhetoric in data science. That body of work has much to offer the practice of leading data science teams.
