There will be CS influence in informatics and data science, but I'm guessing the influence will come from individuals with CS backgrounds rather than CS departments. These individuals will leave CS departments to join other departments involved in domain-specific data science or more formal data analysis and learning methods (e.g., statistics). The modern field of CS is too broad for a single department. Perhaps more universities will follow CMU, creating a school of computer science with specialized departments. Until then, expect to see CS undergrads and Master's students involved in informatics/ML joining non-CS Ph.D. programs.
