Dave on Data Information

🥷 MEET DAVE ► With 28+ years of technology experience, including 14+ years in analytics, I am an author, LinkedIn Top Voice, Microsoft MVP, and AI trainer. Today, my primary focus is helping Power BI teams move beyond dashboards to Generative BI. ⚙️ BI & IT ORGANIZATIONS: Technology leaders work with me when building another dashboard won't get the job done. Business users increasingly want to ask questions in natural language and get accurate, trustworthy answers from their data. That's the promise of Generative BI. But there's a catch: 👉 Connecting an LLM to your data is the easy part. Getting consistently correct answers is much harder. AI needs enough context to understand your organization's terminology, measures, relationships, business rules, and data. 🧠 WHY IT MATTERS: Your investments in data warehouses, Power BI semantic models, measures, metadata, and reporting assets aren't becoming obsolete because of AI. They're becoming the foundation for Generative BI. Generative BI is about much more than generating SQL or adding a chatbot to a dashboard. It's about providing the semantic context AI needs to understand your business. 🚀 WHERE I'M FOCUSED: 👉 Power BI semantic models 👉 Microsoft Fabric & Fabric IQ 👉 Fabric Data Agents 👉 Fabric Ontology 👉 Semantic enrichment 👉 Conversational analytics ✅ HOW I WORK: I support organizations through training, coaching, advisory services, and hands-on consulting. Regardless of the engagement, I start with the business problem first - not the technology. AI may be changing how people interact with data. But getting the data, semantics, and business context right still matters more than ever.
