They say data is the new oil, but like the “peak oil” theory from decades ago, maybe we’ve reached “peak data.” Everyone nowadays is “data-driven,” secretly aspiring to be a data scientist, the “hottest job of the 21st century.” But the challenge today isn’t being data-driven — it’s being data-fluent: optimally using data to communicate more efficiently and with greater impact.
