The AI Reality Tour – Istanbul was not just an event; it was a platform where innovation, collaboration, and the power of data came together. Witnessing the enthusiasm and the genuine interest from all participants was truly inspiring.
Before writing about the Qlik AI Reality Tour – Istanbul, I checked what I wrote last year in Qlik World Tour – Istanbul. The number one takeaway was that AI in BI is not just hype. A year later, it has become even more tangible and impactful.
Burak Ergül and Önder ALTINBILEK delivered a stunning live demo showcasing the latest developments in the Qlik Cloud platform, specifically within the analytics context. It was a real eye opener and great to see Qlik is investing heavily in AI.
Qlik Answer which is Qlik’s new knowledge assistant, is a star in the demo. You could deliver personalized, relevant answers to questions on top of your unstructured data. Simple, plug and play solution with the power of generative AI (GenAI) and retrieval augmented generation (RAG).
Moreover, we have demonstrated Qlik’s AutoML and Automation capabilities which add more value to increase efficiency and effectiveness in the decision-making process.
Qlik Cloud platform has data integration and data management capabilities too. After the acquisition of Talend last year, Qlik tightly integrates Talend’s world-class data integration, data quality and data management capabilities inside the Qlik Cloud platform. Furthermore, there is AI capabilities inside the data integration as well which Ahmet Kaplan demonstrates. Business users can easily benefit from the Data Marketplace, finding approved and qualified datasets to enhance their processes.
Finally, success stories shared by our valued customers made the day even greater. We really give more importance to let the day become a sharing experiences and knowledges between people.
