Is Data Science Obsolete in the Age of AI? Online
In this open lab, Namig Abbasov, Digital Humanities Analyst, will seek to answer questions such as “Machine age … stuff like that….” Many of us remember this quote from “Push-Button Kitty” episode of our favorite childhood cartoon Tom and Jerry, where Tom’s human asks the cat to leave his job and hence the house as she gets a new mouse catcher, a robotic one. The episode was released in 1952. After more than 70 years, humans in various job roles including data science are on the brink of being replaced by AI after the advent of transformer architecture and subsequent rapid developments in generative AI. Will the rising developments in AI replace data scientists? How is generative AI transforming data science? How does the landscape of data science job market look like after the rapid developments in deep learning, generative AI, and LLMs?
