The Future of Data Engineering... It's AI

Can AI become your next data engineer? In this episode of the Superhuman AI Podcast, we sit down with Tim and Chris from fiveonefour to explore why the future of data is AI. From AI-generated pipelines to agentic workflows inside the developer’s IDE, we break down how an AI-native data stack turns context into working products—faster than traditional ETL and dashboards.

We dive into:
- Why “AI is your data engineer” is finally real
- Dev-first workflows: prompting pipelines, tests, and monitors from your IDE
- Unifying local + enterprise context for production data apps
- Moving from brittle ETL to adaptive, agentic pipelines
- Observability, governance, and security in AI-built data systems
- Real-time analytics and retrieval over changing schemas
- How AI shrinks time-to-value for data products

If you’re a data engineer, founder, or builder, this episode is a practical playbook for shipping AI-first data products—without the manual overhead.
