From May 12th to 14th, the Blue BI team, consisting of Alberto Ferrara and Alessandro Lassati, attended the 2025 edition of the Gartner Data & Analytics Summit in London. This prominent international event offered an in-depth overview of the future of data and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
The 4 trends in the world of data and AI according to Gartner
The Gartner Data & Analytics Summit was a unique opportunity to immerse ourselves in the most current discussions and future projections of the sector. We have identified four main trends that are shaping the world of data and AI and that we believe are crucial for companies aiming for innovation:
- Tailored AI vs. Generic AI: according to Gartner’s forecasts, by 2027, AI specialized for business tasks and data will surpass generic AI. This means that solutions like integrated and personalized chatbots will offer more precise answers and lower costs compared to generic models like ChatGPT.
- AI as a starting point for Data Analysis: by 2030, it is estimated that 30% of users will start their data analysis directly with AI, relegating Business Intelligence (BI) tools to a supporting role.
- Greater context for Generative AI: the accuracy of Generative AI can improve up to 80% and costs can be reduced by 60% by providing it with more information on the specific meaning of business data, thus reducing the “inventions” of GenAI and improving reliability.
- Priority to unstructured Data: by 2027, 60% of data governance teams will need to focus on managing unstructured data, such as documents, emails, and videos.
Conclusions
A solid data strategy is essential to fully exploit the potential of AI. It is no longer a time for experimenting, but for building concrete value. To drive this change, it is necessary to focus on three key priorities:
- Trust = Value: build trust through data quality and governance.
- Adaptability = Scale: implement modular architectures and ready-to-use data to scale AI.
- People = Transform: promote a data-driven culture and the development of skills.
We at Blue BI are ready to support you in exploring these trends and implementing effective strategies for the future of your data and AI.
