2024 was another huge year for data and AI. Generative AI continued to shape the way we work and interact with technology, with companies of all sizes racing to integrate AI into their products. We saw strides in tools like AI-enhanced data science notebooks, rapid adoption of generative image AI, and a steady march toward video generation AI. At the same time, foundational skills like AI literacy and data governance gained traction as critical areas for individuals and organizations to master.

This time last year, DataCamp Co-Founders Jonathan and Martijn made a series of predictions and data and AI for 2024, today, they join Richie to reflect on their 2024 predictions and share their vision for data and AI in 2025.

In the episode, Richie, Jonathan, and Martijn review the mainstream adoption of generative AI and its journey toward daily use, the rise of AI literacy as a critical skill, the growing overlap between data science and software engineering with the emergence of AI engineers, evolving trends in programming languages, how generative AI has moved from prototype to production, the near-mainstreaming of video generation AI, why AI hype continues to thrive and much more.
