The group discusses the rapid evolution of AI and data infrastructure. The conversation also explores how AI is accelerating industry change, the challenges of integrating large language models (LLMs) into data workflows, and the limitations of current semantic layers. Kostas shares insights on building next-generation query engines, the importance of using familiar engineering paradigms, and the need to make AI seamless and almost invisible in user experiences. Key takeaways include the necessity of practical, incremental innovation, the reality behind AI hype, strategies for making advanced data tools accessible and reliable for engineers and businesses alike, and so much more.","meta_description":"This week on The Data Stack Show, Eric and John welcome back Kostas Pardalis, long-time co-host of the Data Stack Show and now Co-Founder of typedef.
