Today we're launching DuckLake, an integrated data lake and catalog format powered by SQL. DuckLake unlocks next-generation data warehousing where compute is local, consistency central, and storage scales till infinity. ducklake is an open standard and we implemented it in the "ducklake" extension.

Today I read a bold claim that LLMs architected and trained to work with data will replace the dashboard. I do not agree. Seems much more likely they will make dashboards. Curious what other #data people think.
