Simon Data Co-Founder with Predictions for Data Science in 2023 https://devstyler.io/blog/2023/02/03/simon-data-co-founder-with-predictions-for-data-science-in-2023/ Fri, 03 Feb 2023 07:30:16 +0000 https://devstyler.io/?p=100038 ...]]> The volume of data available to enterprises and the tools used to assess it have increased significantly. And hiring people with data skills has also risen along with the adoption of data-driven tactics. That is, a company can reap more benefits from having a stronger data team, Analytics Insight writes.

Jason Davis is CEO and co-founder of Simon Data, an information platform that empowers businesses everywhere to offer a personalized, data-driven user experience.

He predicts that data scientists will need to specialize in the following three areas: business and market analysts, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning technologies, and infrastructure, as work moves away from the generalist approach and technology capacity increases.

Bridging the gap between business and data
According to Davis, business and market analysts will be the ones to bridge the gap between the business and data departments. People in marketing teams will be given the tools to become more analytical in their work as data and marketing tools are more widely used.

Some tasks currently handled by data teams will be transferred to business teams. According to Davis, technology is enabling people who have some degree of technical background to move to a more technical step.

Building a data science infrastructure
The people who build the infrastructure and clean the data will fulfill another function of the data scientists that Davis believes will emerge. That demand is significant and probably won’t go away very soon. Of course, all three categories of data scientists must possess certain capabilities to maximize their effectiveness and success.

According to Davis, good communication, working with business teams, and solving the right problems are necessary for effective data science.

Specialization in AI and machine learning technologies
According to Davis, specialization in artificial intelligence and machine learning is sure to become another career path in data science. He also predicts that programs like ChatGPT will generate a hunger for anyone proficient in building neural networks and doing rigorous AI research and machine learning engineering.

People with years of experience will be a highly sought-after commodity.

Real-world applications of data science
Davis urges data scientists to focus on the real-world applications of data science that would allow them to succeed, not just the theoretical ones. Davis has personally witnessed the industry’s radical transformation, and as a result, he expects that today’s data scientists will be more focused on real-world applications.

Will these professions be replaced by chatbots like ChatGPT? https://devstyler.io/blog/2023/01/31/will-these-professions-be-replaced-by-chatbots-like-chatgpt/ Tue, 31 Jan 2023 09:02:04 +0000 https://devstyler.io/?p=99766 ...]]> Chatbots and artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT, which can create increasingly sophisticated written content in a short amount of time, are now being used to perform tasks ranging from writing school assignments to generating legal documents and even creating laws, cbs news reports.

Unanswered questions…

However, technological innovations such as these leave many question marks. Will humans be replaced and will artificial intelligence take over their roles? Will the emergence of entirely new activities bring potential employment opportunities?

Digitalization and the New Time – Where do people belong?

Dynamic developments in the technological world welcome us to plunge into a new, completely different and unknown to most of us era – the digital one. But although this will bring many prospects, each of you is probably asking yourself where will humans belong among the hundreds of innovations and will artificial intelligence replace the need for human intelligence?

Here’s which professions will be replaced by chatbots like ChatGPT

Computer programming
ChatGPT can write computer code to program applications and software. It can check programmers’ language for errors and convert ideas from plain English into a programming language.

“In terms of jobs, I think it’s mostly an enhancement, not a complete job replacement. Coding and programming is a good example of that. You can actually write code pretty well”,

Columbia Business School professor Oded Netzer tells CBS MoneyWatch.

That could mean performing basic coding activities currently done by humans.

Basic email
Writing simple administrative or scheduling emails for things like setting up or canceling appointments could also easily be outsourced to a tool like ChatGPT, according to Netzer.

“There’s hardly any creativity involved, so why would we write the whole thing instead of saying to the machine, ‘I need to set a meeting on this date,'”

he said.

Mid-level writing
David Autor, an MIT economist who specializes in labor, pointed to some mid-level white-collar jobs as functions that can be handled by AI, including work like writing human resources letters, producing advertising copy and drafting press releases.

“Bots will be much more in the realm of people who do a mixture of intuitive and mundane tasks like writing basic advertising copy, first drafts of legal documents. Those are expert skills, and there is no question that software will make them cheaper and therefore devalue human labor,”

Autor said.

Media planning and buying
Creative industries are likely to be affected, too. Noted advertising executive Sir Martin Sorrell, founder of WPP, the world’s largest ad and PR group, said on a recent panel that he expects the way companies buy ad space will become automated “in a highly effective way” within five years.

“So you will not be dependent as a client on a 25-year old media planner or buyer, who has limited experience, but you’ll be able to pool the data. That’s the big change,”

he said.

Legal functions
According to artificial intelligence experts and lawyers, ChatGPT’s capabilities translate well to the legal profession. In fact, the ChatGPT bot recently took a law school exam and received a passing grade after writing essays on topics ranging from constitutional law to taxation and torts.

“The dynamic that’s going on with lawyers now is that there’s too much work that’s possibly being done, so they’re making an artificial distinction between what they’re going to work on and what’s going to be set aside,”

says Jason Boehmig, co-founder and CEO of Ironclad, a legal software company.

Common legal forms and documents, including residential leases, wills and non-disclosure agreements, are fairly standard and can be drafted by a sophisticated bot.
