Summary:
A roundtable on Generative AI’s impact on Data Engineers is crucial to discuss AI’s capabilities, skills evolution, ethical considerations, and innovation in data management. It’ll address AI’s role in augmenting vs. replacing human tasks, necessary workforce adaptations, ethical deployment, and policy development, ensuring a balanced technological advancement that benefits society and the workforce. At this table, we want to discuss the following questions:
- How do data engineers perceive GenAI? Is this a boon or a bane for their existence?
- What are some practical real world applications of Gen AI in Data Engineering that are realistically achievable right now?
- Everything costs something, is the investment and cost of running LLM models on top of Data Engineering worth the effort? If yes, why. If no, why?
