What is so smart about smart dashboarding tools?

ThoughtSpot's Sage AI-powered analytics tool has demonstrated impressive performance in descriptive analytics tasks, answering questions such as the number of companies served and deals broken by industry with ease. However, its performance in diagnostic and predictive analytics is limited, failing to provide meaningful results for queries that require complex analysis or forecasting. The tool excelled when combined with a solid data model and semantic definitions, allowing it to accurately understand business user needs. Despite its limitations, Sage has the potential to empower analysts by offering solutions via interfaces like ChatGPT, handling descriptive tasks to save time, and generating scripts for more complex calculations. The debate on whether smart dashboarding or AI-driven analytics tools can displace analysts remains ongoing, with Sage's performance suggesting that it is more likely to augment rather than replace human analysts in certain tasks.
