IMO you can't simply automate completely a data scientist's job but for a company that's considering hiring a smaller team, it might reduce the size with a pair or two.
I'm pretty sure it has a couple of hidden and clever solutions but overall it seems that it 'just' utilizes the basic models and statistical analyses that most of us already know.
The other thing I'm nto sure is whether it requires some kind of preconfiguration or you just let it run in the wild? IMO certain business areas have the typical patterns (accounting, manufacture, etc) that they're prepared for and they tailor the system for the specific database of the customer as the system itself is very flexible. Under the hood it has to have some kind of knowledge that it's dealing with products and product categories and not employees and their evaluation data.
I really like the concept of the whole package and I'm really curious about the opinion of yours! What do you think?
