Is this the end for data analysts? AI agent, 500GB, 100 rounds, 134.9s, $1.66
medium.comI built this over 6 months. The system connects to raw data, infers schema and business relationships autonomously, then investigates using 100+ rounds of reasoning — each round is what a human analyst would spend hours on. Demo of the system: https://youtu.be/qqiQvZKoi-Q. The article walks through the architecture (MCP, Trino, agents-as-prompts). Happy to answer questions.
I do some AI training work. I haven’t seen data analytics tasks in over a year. That seems to be solved as far as the AI people are concerned.
