    I have studied Microsoft Excel and Power BI and have your courses on Udemy. I am on disability and receive a lot of stigma from main stream society. I am considered good enough to clean toilets and wash dishes but not to do any of this stuff. ☹️ It is hard to get proficient if you don't get any opportunities. ☹️ People judge me for living off their taxes but then treat me like this. 😫

    Hi Maven Analytics, You are the best in the field. I am currently taking the PL-300 course by Aaron on Udemy as I am planning to take the exam soon. However, I am facing a significant challenge with playing the course content. I tried other courses on Udemy, and they are playing videos fine. Is this issue specific to me, or is it a problem with Udemy? Additionally, I am trying to use my Maven Analytics account to access the 60-day free trial for Fabric, but it says that Maven Analytics has reached the limit, and I can't access the Fabric free trial. Is there something you can do to help? I am a loyal member and have purchased several courses from you. I would appreciate any assistance you can provide with these issues. thanks a lot 🙏

Please advice accordingly 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

    I think this excercise was a great experiment. My conclusion is that Ai will most likely take over the role of building dash boards and the tech stuff. It got to the point of the first viz, as the (very senior) analyst, 80% quicker. That meant that the skill of building PowerBi and data tables etc is fast becomming obsolete, which is good news. The analyst was able to demostrate more value (much more) in recognising the distinct count and the change in the games frequency. So in the future if your value add is limited to building dash boards and you dont really understand the data, then your job is very much under threat. Lets be honest if you see data as just dots on a page (exactly like ChatGPT did in this example) then you have little value to offer going forward.

    The slicing of the season dimension was really an important insight in data that chatgpt ignored 😊. The main difference between AI and the human Evolutionary aspect is the way humans have feelings. So chatgpt can never replace the human mindset but surely can assist the human generations to come.

    I would love to see how expert data analyst leverage GenAI to make data analyst process faster and better. Like asking ChatGPT why in certain year Olyompic participan is lower or asking chat GPT to make a list of countries based on regional, continent, developing/ develop. That way, some tedious job can be offloaded to GenAI hence the expert can focus more on creative work.

    What no one realised is that when you click on the star like icon, Chat GPT shows the actual python code it used to analyse and create the visualisation. It is quite useful and you can modify it to get far more detail results.

    Both analysis are not correct. The Soviet Union (USSR) was a large country with 15 constituent republics, and it competed in the Olympics as a single entity. This means athletes from all 15 republics could be on the Soviet Olympic team. After the USSR dissolved in 1991, the 15 republics became independent countries. Since then, each country sends its own athletes to the Olympics. So, Russia only sends athletes who are citizens of Russia.

    Most useful video I've seen so far from my point of view. I'm a beginner and it is really killing my drive and motivation to follow along hours of theoretical videos without knowing were this is going and how the knowledge will be applied. Here I can follow along and see the actual skills in action and learn by doing myself. Great stuff. I would add some teaser visuals at the beginning to see what we will achieve, not just explainations and text. Quick question. Why add headers and not a table ? Cheers from France. A
