The Data Scientist will be replaced by Tools
Data science is one of the hottest new professions, yet some say that its demise is not far off. A data scientist crunches huge swathes of data to create meaningful information. However, now with data warehousing taking place at larger than ever levels, and extremely precise algorithms created, the need for a scientist of sorts is fading out. Automation is taking a toll on engineering and scientific jobs and may soon do this to data scientists. The human judgement versus automation debate is in full-swing. Even the term “data science” is coming under debate as some say it isn’t a science but an engineering discipline. Some knowledge workers will get replaced by algorithms but not at the pace a few envisage.
