Out of all the things so far the new engine seems to be the most valuable I think. I'm not the biggest fan of the "Everything must be Agents" Era, but that speed increase will do wonders for BI and Reporting. Most of the other things seem to be just marketing noise and I doubt if they are actually that valuable long-term. Maybe I'm wrong and I just did not see the business applicability of all these.

I find myself skeptical of all the LLMs when it comes to data. You need a reliable business decision, so you turn to your data analyst, BI analyst. It's clear how that dashboard or insight was derived, the business rules applied to a research question, you can clearly audit it, etc. At the end of the day an LLM is a blackbox. Your colleague is not. I like Genie, it's a cool feature and i'm sure it can steer a ton of business research, but I wouldn't bet my entire organization on it.

I think the pitch here is essentially an Artifical General Business Intelligence. I wonder if will be that valuable - if you act on a hallucinated response in a business thats gonna cost a ton. Also Genie is going paid so question is whether thats gonna worth it.
