John and Mark take the Rock Bottom Data Feed on the road in Kansas City!!
This episode was recorded live at the wonderfully distinctive Atlas9 with members of the local DAMA Kansas City Chapter. Thanks to Chapter President Robert LaGrega and VP of Programs Jill Camper for sponsoring and organizing our visit. Jill hatched the idea of a podcast recording at the DGIQ-EDW conference this past May, and joined the Rock Bottom Players for the opening sketch.
Chapter members stepped up to the open mic for the Data Poetry Slam, posed questions to the 8-Bit Consultants (although admittedly some of the answers exceeded 256 characters), and played our famous game show, the Audio Data Rorschach Test.
In between the fun, we had a lively discussion about AI and the future of data management. Will AI replace data quality tools? How will the roles of data professionals change? And what happens to our own expertise when we rely increasingly on AI? The audience brought plenty of opinions, questions, and some memorable answers. This is what happens when you put a room full of data professionals behind an open microphone!
