(Livestream Replay) Communication is the New Code: Beyond Copy/Paste with GPT's (w/ Kurt Buhler)

DESCRIPTION 📄

The landscape of Power BI development is rapidly evolving as AI tools transform how we approach data modeling, DAX development, and report creation. While many professionals are familiar with ChatGPT, the ecosystem of AI assistance has expanded dramatically, offering specialized tools that can revolutionize your Power BI workflow.

In this comprehensive session, we'll explore cutting-edge AI tools that go far beyond basic chatbots:

🤖 Claude Desktop & MCP Servers - Discover how Claude's advanced reasoning capabilities and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers can provide deeper insights into your data models, suggest optimizations, and help debug complex DAX expressions with unprecedented accuracy.

⚡ GitHub Copilot for Power BI - Learn how this code completion tool adapts to Power BI development, accelerating DAX writing, M queries, and even documentation generation.

🔍 Advanced AI Workflows - See real-world demonstrations of AI-assisted Power BI development, from automated measure generation to intelligent data modeling suggestions.

We'll provide an honest assessment of these tools - the goods (incredible productivity gains), the bads (current limitations), and the uglies (potential pitfalls and over-reliance risks). You'll leave with practical strategies to integrate these AI tools into your daily Power BI development process.

Whether you're a seasoned Power BI developer or just getting started, this session will show you how "communication truly is the new code" in our AI-augmented world.
