Al Democratization – The Path to Mass Adoption by Kurtis Kemple

Event: AI Data Infrastructure Field Day 1

Appearance: Ignite Talks at AI Data Infrastructure Field Day 1

Company: Ignite

Personnel: Kurtis Kemple

Kurtis Kemple’s talk at AI Data Infrastructure Field Day 1 explores the democratization of AI and its potential to transform lives beyond the enterprise sector. He begins by highlighting the current focus of AI on improving business efficiency and productivity, which, while necessary, has limited the technology’s reach to a broader audience. Kemple shares his personal journey from incarceration to becoming a senior director at Slack, emphasizing how technology, particularly AI, can be a transformative force for individuals who traditionally lack access to it. He argues that for AI to achieve mass adoption, it must become more accessible and user-friendly, addressing the needs of non-technical users who are currently excluded from its benefits.

Kemple identifies several barriers to AI adoption among the general public, including the complexity of AI systems, issues of intellectual property theft, and a significant lack of trust. He points out that the current AI landscape often requires users to become skilled prompt engineers to interact effectively with AI models, which is not feasible for everyday users. He draws an analogy to Steve Jobs’ introduction of the iPod, suggesting that AI needs to be as intuitive and user-friendly as revolutionary consumer products. Kemple stresses that the blank canvas problem, where users are presented with an empty text field and little guidance, is a major obstacle to AI’s widespread adoption.

To overcome these challenges, Kemple proposes a shift towards collective intelligence, where numerous specialized models are made accessible through a marketplace. This marketplace would support both free and paid models, offer no-code tools for fine-tuning, and provide educational resources to empower experts from various fields to create and share their models. He envisions an intelligent orchestration layer that can route user queries to the appropriate models, simplifying the user experience. Additionally, Kemple emphasizes the importance of building trust through open-source foundations, transparent data sets, and credible model training by recognized experts. By making AI more accessible, trustworthy, and tailored to diverse needs, Kemple believes that AI can truly transform lives and reach its full potential.


WhatsApp for Qlik Sense SaaS by Brian Booden

Personnel: Brian Booden

Brian Booden’s Ignite talk at AI Data Infrastructure Field Day 1 details the integration of WhatsApp with Qlik Sense SaaS, a business intelligence (BI) tool. Booden, with a background in data and analytics, highlights the importance of conversational analytics in today’s data-driven world. He explains that while Qlik integrates with various tools like Slack and Teams, WhatsApp is notably absent. This absence is significant because WhatsApp is widely used for personal communication, making it a more immediate and engaging platform for users. Booden emphasizes the unique engagement factor of WhatsApp, where users are more likely to respond to messages due to the platform’s notification system, which includes read receipts.

Booden outlines the technical architecture required to connect Qlik with WhatsApp, focusing on the need to minimize data transfer points for security reasons. He explains that the integration involves using WhatsApp APIs to facilitate direct communication between Qlik and WhatsApp, ensuring data protection and compliance with privacy regulations. The challenge lies in WhatsApp’s stringent policies, as it is part of Meta (formerly Facebook), which requires business messages to be pre-approved and triggered by specific actions. Booden has spent the last 18 months developing a solution to navigate these complexities, enabling seamless data interaction through WhatsApp.

In his live demonstration, Booden showcases two use cases: structured data interaction and unstructured data interaction using Qlik’s recently released LLM (Large Language Model) called Qlik Answers. The first demo involves pulling customer data from a Qlik dashboard and generating a PDF report, all triggered through WhatsApp. The second demo focuses on querying unstructured data, such as troubleshooting a printer issue, using natural language processing. Booden concludes by emphasizing the growing importance of conversational analytics, predicting that the demand for instant, mobile-friendly data interactions will continue to rise. He believes that integrating BI tools with widely-used communication platforms like WhatsApp can significantly enhance user engagement and efficiency.
