GenAI vs. Data Scientists: Cutting Through the Hype in the Future of Analytics
As Generative AI keeps advancing, the big question on everyone’s mind is: Will it replace data scientists? Let’s be clear—if you think GenAI is going to replace data scientists anytime soon, you probably see them as little more than “SQL monkeys” cranking out dashboards and charts. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. Data science is way more than writing queries or building reports. It’s a powerful mix of creative problem-solving, sharp business and customer insight, and tight collaboration with cross-functional teams (XFNs). Ironically, the parts of the job most likely to be taken over by GenAI are the same ones data scientists are least excited about anyway. In this blog, we break down which parts of the data science workflow are ripe for automation, which areas remain deeply human, and what you can do to stay ahead—and thrive—as the field evolves.
