I first built an AI that thinks like an analyst. Now I have built a better AI Data analyst for the practical use of AI. This episode breaks down the simple rebuild: start with a clear objective, pick 5–8 focus columns, and ship a one-page Markdown brief. You’ll also get a 3-minute quiz (10:33), a Substack discussion (17:04), and a 9-step checklist you can use today.
What you’ll learn
- How to start with a clear business goal (not charts)
- Why focusing on 5–8 columns increases signal
- How a 1-page brief moves work faster than a dashboard
