Citizen data scientists and self-serve data science - over-hyped pipe dream or logical next phase of evolution?
Data Science
Glasgow
Synopsis
If data science is over-hyped, then citizen data science is 10x over-hyped! Agree? Disagree? In this discussion, the speakers will aim to explore the topic, outlining various views on what the term means, why it's important, what it means for organisations, talent and careers, and crucially pose the question: would you trust a taxi driver to take you to Mars?
