Title inflation - tech firms calling everyone a data scientist even if they are doing something like making dashboards.
My favourite was an intern a few years ago who called himself a Data Scientist on LinkedIn. Was at a smaller construction company at the time. LI said ‘First data science hire’. Baffled me as I worked in the Analytics team and the enterprise data was quite gatekept. Ended up speaking to him at work drinks and he said he does all his ‘data science’ in excel. Made regression lines and whatnot. No SQL, Python or notebooks, really got a chuckle out of me
Aren’t you an LLM expert now? AI and data science is so 2013
Lol it's funny because it's not like data scientist really sounds much more advanced than data analyst. If anything "analyst" is a more descriptive and accurate title. I wonder why Silicon Valley doesn't just call them "data rockstars" hahah
