Alteryx Leverages Generative AI To Expand Analytics Platform Capabilities
Summary
As with other recent IT vendor conferences, including this week’s Red Hat Summit 2023 and Microsoft’s Build 2023, generative AI was a hot topic at the Alteryx Inspire event. And AiDIN underlies the new OpenAI Connector, which provides a way for users to incorporate generative AI into Alteryx Designer workflows. Generative AI “lowers the barriers to entry for people to ask questions about the data,” said Suresh Vittal, Alteryx chief product officer, at the Inspire press briefing. AiDIN and the new capabilities in Alteryx Designer will help businesses build their own AI engines that integrate and analyze proprietary data generated by their own operational systems, including ERP and CRM applications, Wilson said. In December Barb Huelskamp, Alteryx senior vice president of global partners and alliances, told CRN that the data analytics company has seen significant channel sales momentum since then.
