    In this week’s In Ear Insights, let’s talk about a term you probably haven’t heard yet: generative analytics. Now, before I dig into what that means, Katie, what does that mean to you when you hear that term?

    Katie Robbert – 00:19

    It sounds akin to predictive analytics, where there’s some kind of machine learning involved. It sounds like perhaps we’re going to be using generative AI to make up data, which is probably incorrect. I don’t know. But yeah, that’s what it sounds like. We’re going to make some stuff up.

What are we going to do about it? Do more of this?” That’s kind of the idea behind it.

    Katie Robbert – 02:03

    I think the term analysis paralysis is what comes to mind. I was talking with someone recently, and she quoted to me, she’s like, “Back when there was big data and everybody was collecting all of their data.” And I just kind of had to laugh a little bit.
