On "This Is How Marketers Can Use AI Agents for Data Analysis"

AI code-generation tools work for marketing data analysis because they're actually just query-and-transformation engines, not because they're magic. If you've been manually pivoting spreadsheets or writing SQL, handing that work to Claude or similar makes obvious sense—it's automating tedium, not replacing judgment. The real friction point is getting your data clean enough to feed into these tools in the first place, which the story probably doesn't dwell on as much as it should. Practitioners should treat this as a productivity lever for the grind work, not as newfound analytical capability.
