#06 - Language Centric Analytics

Experts say that History as we know it starts when humans invent a written form of communication. Everything before is called prehistoric for that reason. However, a lot happen before the first cave person lay its hand covered with paint made from blood and plants in a wall. We formed small societies thousands of years ago and a way to keep every bigger groups together was through communication.

We use language for almost everything we do, and we have doing so for a long time. Language is the most natural form to interact to one another and to express ideas. Even when you're alone with your thoughts, you think and process information in the form of language.

Data Analytics is one of the rare fields where we do things differently. We do not use language per se, or natural language. We use mouse, charts, tables, and queries. That is unnatural. It is artificial and inefficient. Not anymore. With modern LLM technology we are now finally able to implement a whole new concept: Analytics centric in language instead of dashboards, reports or queries. 

In this episode, Igor Alcantara and Angelika Klidas discuss the birth of Language-Centric Analytics, the concepts and the impact in the field of analytics and in society as a whole.
