AI does not decide who gets fired. Companies do.
AI has accelerated data scientists’ productivity, but its influence extends beyond speed. The technology is reshaping who owns data, how judgment is exercised, and the overall career trajectory of data scientists. These changes signal a broader transformation in the field’s structure and responsibilities.

The article titled "Your AI Bill Is a Toll Booth. Stop Paying Twice." discusses how users are unexpectedly paying more for AI services than anticipated, likening the experience to a toll booth where one pays twice. It highlights the unseen costs that can arise when using AI tools and urges readers to be vigilant about their expenses. The piece was first published on Towards Data Science.
The article titled "An Introduction to Jev" discusses an AI system that focuses on making decisions rather than generating text. It highlights Jev’s unique approach to decision-making within the broader context of AI development. The piece was originally published on Towards Data Science.
The article outlines four practical applications of AI for PhD students: locating relevant citations, consolidating code snippets, fact‑checking research claims, and preparing for the thesis defence. It highlights how AI tools can streamline the research process and improve the quality of academic work.
The article "How to Work with AI Coding Agents" offers a practical guide aimed at improving code quality rather than merely increasing quantity. It focuses on strategies and best practices for effectively collaborating with AI coding tools to produce better code. The post was originally published on Towards Data Science.
