That pricing won’t be sustainable, particularly as hardware shortages drive up the cost of building infrastructure. Advanced Data Analysis does a decent job of exploring and analyzing datasets—though we expect data analysts to be careful about checking AI’s output and to distrust software that’s labeled as “beta.”
