Is Big Data turning out to be mostly Big Hype?

Scott Kaufman hosted "Is Big Data turning out to be mostly Big Hype?," an event sponsored by Silley Circuits on June 3, 2019 in the New York office.

Two years ago the media was full of reports on how big data was going to change most businesses. Today there is little or no discussion of the issue and media attention is now focused on the "big promise" of Artificial Intelligence.

Discussion topics included:

• Was talk of missing out on use of big data just another hype by consultants to sell their services?
• What are the major changes taking place in businesses due to the availability and analysis of massive amounts of online and offline data?
• Where are the business opportunities and jobs?
