In my opinion I don't think we still have the necessary controls to handle complex data scenarios that we see in most of the big organizations, so we still ways to go to replace humans by AI. As an e.g. companies are still struggling with DQ issues which still need human intervention today due to the complexities involved.

It is unlikely to replace the need for human data analysts entirely with AI because human analysts can bring domain and cross-functional/organisational expertise, ethical judgement, creativity and contextual understanding that AI currently lacks. 
I see AI continue to augment human analysts and the collaboration between humans and AI will be a powerful combination in data / business analysis area.

I'm interested in understanding how organisations manage increasing support overhead from running the databricks analytical platform.  This is being driven by a number of factors: - wide range of user personas (data engineers, data scientists, analysts) - differing maturity levels (some people needing high levels of support because they have low familiarity with data and analytics and databricks; others with advanced understanding) - increasing capability (Databricks are deploying new features frequently) What tactics have people found successful to deal with this?
