I had a super fun chat with Barr! Thanks so much for having me on.
AI and data teams in a sense, kind of, do the same thing: make decisions based on data. So how do you build AI that helps data teams do their best work? Hex was one of the first companies in their space to embrace language models and build code generation features into their data workspace. In this episode of Barrchives, I went deep with Hex (/ @_hex_tech)'s co-founder and CEO, @barrald, about Hex’s journey towards becoming an AI company.

If you're in SF and like data stuff, come by our next Friends of Data meetup on Dec 17 at Flour + Water Pizzeria! Data legend Pedram Navid will be joining us. The conversation should be super interesting (but even if it's not we'll still have pizza and drinks) RSVP 👉
