nice! AI is about to end this - shortly, we'll be able to ask for the answer directly, in zero clicks.

  and have no confidence in it

  Perhaps we could create a set of logical prompts to get there even faster. We could call it a structured query language!

    Or better yet: conversation query language (CQL)! ...Though the risk exists for verbal name collision. ;-)

  Dunno, seems to me that asking (writing in this case) is not final solution. In fact, in most cases, typing down a question will take longer than looking in a well created table. This chat-like back-and-forth, will take forever to understand some dataset properly. One question answered will give birth to 5 additional questions and so on.

  this is unfairly downvoted, IMHO -- i doubt it will take "zero clicks" -- we're more likely replacing clicks with prompts -- but LLMs can definitely help bridge the gap between data wrangling and presentation. replies to this comment seem to overvalue the challenges without acknowledging that those may eventually be overcome.

    search-driven analytics is not really a new thing and products in this space were before LLM-era. This kind of interface can be useful for some categories of users but it is not a game-changer - prompts cannot replace Excel and its pivot tables, and in fact typing prompts may be even more complicated for users than good old 'clicks'.
