AI impact on this career

AI is automating many lower-level data tasks like cleaning, basic charting, and even some pattern-spotting, which means junior analysts who only do those things are increasingly at risk. However, the demand for analysts who can ask the right questions, design robust studies, and interpret AI-generated outputs in business context is rising. Tools like synthetic data generation and natural language queries are also changing how primary research is conducted. Analysts who can combine domain expertise with advanced analytics will find their roles evolving rather than disappearing.
