Within organizational context, despite some prominent work in developing easy-to-use tools, understanding analytics remains confined to just a few. Now, Tableau\u2019s new feature<\/a>, that makes insights more understandable, might be an expedite towards a more data driven organization. Data Stories<\/strong> is an AI-driven tool that explains visual charts and dashboards in an easy, and straightforward way.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Data\u2019 has the power to impact every aspect of organizational working. Embedded<\/em><\/strong> and augmented analytics<\/em><\/strong><\/a> are two areas that aim to democratize data within an organization. This means that each individual, irrespective of their technical level, could be empowered to use data for decision making.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Examples of such technologies include: natural language processing- NLP<\/strong> allowing users to type-in natural language to ask queries to programs instead of coding, or AI-driven<\/strong> mobile apps offering automated visuals for employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although these tools remain helpful, employees are still not empowered enough in using analytics in their routine decision making. According to some studies, just 1\/4th or 1\/3rd of total organizational employees use data in their decision making. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tableau<\/strong><\/a>, a leading body in the Business Intelligence industry, has attempted to break this barrier by developing a new feature that\u2019s powered by AI. The news broke at the recent Tableau Conference 2022<\/strong> where the upcoming feature: \u2018Data Stories\u2019 was announced.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“There is a data revolution going on, and we want to bring data everywhere for everyone.” says Francois Ajenstat, Tableau’s chief product officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data Stories uses an AI algorithm to fetch data from visualizations. These visualizations are pre-developed by the BI engineers and are simply translated into human-understandable language. It\u2019s a quick way to generate key business insights for BI engineers as well as an assistance for employees to learn about what the data analysis says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using this capability, employees at any organizational tier can merge the information into their daily strategies and workflows. Data democratization<\/a> is truly possible if this is enabled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tableau seeks to add Data Stories by the end of 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
