Freestyle Friday - The Great Pacific Garbage Patch of AI Data Slop

Things aren't great in the world of data practitioners. Lots of technical debt and lack of pride in one's craft. The pressure to do more with less only compounds this problem. And AI will make it far worse. If you think the amount of poorly made data architecture and models is bad now, I think we're in for another level very soon. With AI CoPilot on the rise, right as data skills and knowledge decline, I'm increasingly worried we'll offload our critical thinking and skills to AI. The outcome will be an ever expanding Great Pacific Garbage Patch of AI Data Slop.
