Nathaniel WhittemoreHOST
The goal is to realize the promise of being able to talk to your data and perform real analysis without needing to touch additional tools.
Nathaniel WhittemoreHOST
Souther Jones, the chief product officer at Tableau, said, "Connecting Tableau with ChatGPT Work brings trusted business semantics into a place employees already work, so the answers they get are grounded in the same data model their teams rely on.
Nathaniel WhittemoreHOST
Users can easily transform insights into action by asking questions, exploring evidence, and publishing new views directly to Tableau using built-in design and analytics best practices." Taking a step back then, if you look at the aggregate of these feature updates from OpenAI, they are all about honing in on specific types of business users, better connecting both the tools and context they need to do their work, and through that better tool access and better context connections, make it vastly easier and frankly more inviting to move more of their workflows into ChatGPT.
Nathaniel WhittemoreHOST
This is not a new trend, but it's certainly one that I think we're gonna see a lot more of.
Nathaniel WhittemoreHOST
In other words, verticalization that really understands how very specific types of people work.
Rukaiyat AlabiGUEST
They were not what was used in the office in industry.
Rukaiyat AlabiGUEST
So I had to learn Python, Power BI, Tableau and all those other tools.
Rukaiyat AlabiGUEST
And that helped me to secure my first role in the UK as a senior finance analyst in another bank.
Rukaiyat AlabiGUEST
So for me, it was so like the fact that I didn't even go back in my career.
Andy HallidayHOST
And it reminds us that OpenAI strategy, while having a billion weekly active users, which is obviously a very large number of consumers, Their core strategy is trying to mimic the successful strategy of Anthropic going after enterprise and those kinds of applications, as opposed to the people who are building custom GPTs and all the other ways that OpenAI has made it easy for the sort of the unwashed and the non-proficient to actually use AI in effective ways.
Andy HallidayHOST
So then there's this other one that they built, which is a data agent in chat GPT work that has Tableau, Power BI, Databricks, BigQuery, and Snowflake as the licensed information.
Andy HallidayHOST
And so they package all this stuff up.
Andy HallidayHOST
And just in the way that we've been talking about custom GPTs packaging some files and context and and other processes into a set of instructions and knowledge base that can then create an interactive assistant that can do something for you.
Magdalina AtanassovaHOST
My guest is CIMA Summit Speaker Elizabeth Maxson, fondly known as Emacs, Chief Marketing Officer at Contentful, where she leads marketing strategies that use AI and personalization to help brands deliver content at scale.
Magdalina AtanassovaHOST
She previously served as CMO at Quip and Tableau, both Salesforce companies.
Magdalina AtanassovaHOST
In this conversation, we talk about how Elizabeth builds credibility for marketing inside a leadership team, what it takes to turn a pipeline problem into a business case a CMO can't ignore, and why executive presence is less about polish and more about reading the room.
Magdalina AtanassovaHOST
We also explore the AI experimentation reshaping her marketing stack and how her early years in event management gave her an edge most marketers never develop.
Magdalina AtanassovaHOST
It's my pleasure.
Magdalina AtanassovaHOST
And tell me, you've been chief marketing officer at three different companies.
Magdalina AtanassovaHOST
You've been Quip and Tableau and now at Contentful, each tied to a very different wave of technology.
Magdalina AtanassovaHOST
So what's the first thing you can look for to gauge whether marketing already has a seat at the table or whether you have to build one from scratch?
Natalia BakaevaGUEST
So he worked with data and with graphical information.
Natalia BakaevaGUEST
He was part of Tableau team when it was acquired by Salesforce.
Natalia BakaevaGUEST
And that's how he transitioned and ended up in Salesforce.
Natalia BakaevaGUEST
After that, he tried to start several startups.
Chris McDonoughGUEST
zero to 100 people.
Chris McDonoughGUEST
It was funny, kind of similar to that, like, we had a Tableau dashboard that we were held accountable to for recruiting.
Chris McDonoughGUEST
Because the main goal was you guys have to hire.
Chris McDonoughGUEST
Every leader is very much baked into their day-to-day.
David HendersonGUEST
Right.
David HendersonGUEST
We had like you had a thing you'd use Tableau or Power BI or whatever it is to go into that production data system and extract what you need, create your custom data grids, whatever, and go from there.
David HendersonGUEST
And now if we're talking at the pace of AI of how quickly we're going to have to like change.
David HendersonGUEST
The solution said if we're refactoring all of those production systems every time we want to make a data analytics change, we're just not going to get there.
Justin ReimerGUEST
[laughs]
Tyler VanceHOST
Or Tableau dashboards.
Tyler VanceHOST
Um-
Justin ReimerGUEST
Totally.
Max FreedmanGUEST

Matt FordHOST
Mm.
Max FreedmanGUEST

Grant HarveyHOST

Corey NolesHOST
If you are a casual person who needs access to powerful data and don't know what in the world you're doing with a BI tool, business intelligence tool like Power BI or Tableau, this is great.
Corey NolesHOST
Tell it, "Here's this junk I have.
Corey NolesHOST
Please take it, build sensible dashboards that would make sense to even me." [laughs]
