That's a completely different topic. "Data" is obviously a pretty generic term and "large sets of data" are going to be more and more relevant to the world in general. What he's talking about is the Big Data trend in industry specifically around Business Intelligence (BI). That is, collecting as much data as possible on your users to optimize your product experience and profits. Tracking clicks, purchases, form dropoffs, email opens, ad impressions. It's mostly going to be first-party data (ie what did they do with our own products and content).
ChatGPT and the like are not going to get much use from that kind of data and instead are looking at a giant corpus of text and images scraped from a variety of public sources to infer what humans might think sounds smart. It's possible the two worlds will meet, but that's probably not what's going to be announced this week.
