                                                                                                                                                  As organizations increasingly rely on data-driven insights to guide strategic decisions, the latest trends in data warehousing reflect a shift toward more sophisticated, scalable, and secure solutions.

Databricks AI/BI Genie mitigates this problem through a new conversational analytics experience for business teams to self-serve by asking ad hoc questions directly on their data. In this talk we will cover what AI/BI Genie is, how it can help, and explore some best practices to set up a Genie for your business users. Watch on-demand.
