This is a good counterweight to traditional semantic-layer thinking because it asks whether AI-assisted query discovery changes where modeling work belongs. It fits the site because the interesting part is not the tool category, it is the boundary between governed meaning and flexible exploration.
I would read it with skepticism and curiosity. AI can reduce the friction of asking questions, but it does not magically settle definitions, metric ownership, or trust.
