Knowledge Distillation: The Rise of the AI Analyst
Welcome to Knowledge Distillation – a series exploring how AI Analysts are transforming the future of data work. We look at practitioners becoming AI Analysts, founders building AI Analyst tools, VCs backing the AI Analyst wave, and market analysts mapping the trend.
Each episode uncovers what it means to be an AI Analyst today – the workflows being reinvented, the skills analysts need now, and the promises AI is keeping or breaking. From prompt engineering to context management, we dive into the real conversations shaping this role.
Let’s distill some knowledge. Because bots won’t win. AI Analysts will.
