#337 DataFramed, Distilled. The Best Moments of 2025 with Richie Cotton2025 was the year AI stopped being a curiosity and started reshaping real work. From data analysts speeding up entire workflows in minutes, to managers learning how to lead hybrid teams of humans and agents, the pace of change has been relentless. Across DataFramed this year, one theme kept surfacing: AI isn’t replacing data professionals—it’s raising the bar on what good looks like. Skills are shifting, careers are becoming more fluid, and organizations are being forced to rethink how they build teams, make decisions, and govern technology that now reasons, plans, and acts on our behalf. This Best of 2025 episode pulls together the most important ideas, voices, and debates from a year that fundamentally changed how data and AI show up in practice. In this special year-end roundup, Richie revisits the standout moments from DataFramed in 2025, spanning careers, business intelligence, data literacy, AI agents, industry use cases, and responsible AI foundations. You’ll hear why the data analyst role is evolving rather than disappearing, how hybrid human–AI teams are becoming the norm, and why communication remains the most underrated skill in data careers, the state of BI and data storytelling, the shift from training to behavior change in data and AI literacy, the rapid rise of agentic systems powered by reasoning at inference time. We also dive into real-world applications across healthcare, finance, and enterprise operations, alongside hard truths about data quality, governance, and model lineage. Finally, we spotlight advances in data science, NLP, and synthetic data—rounding out a year defined by faster cycles, higher expectations, and a renewed focus on getting the fundamentals right as AI scales.

#335 Rebuilding Trust in the Digital Age with Jimmy Wales, Founder at WikipediaThe internet has transformed how we access information, but it's also created unprecedented challenges around trust and reliability. How do we build digital spaces where collaboration thrives and quality information prevails? What separates toxic online environments from productive ones? The principles of neutrality, transparency, and assuming good faith have proven essential in creating sustainable knowledge communities. But these same principles extend far beyond the digital realm—they're fundamental to effective leadership, successful business relationships, and even political discourse. When trust breaks down, everything becomes more difficult. So what practical steps can we take to foster trust in our organizations and communities? Jimmy Wales is an American-British internet entrepreneur best known as the founder of Wikipedia and co-founder of Fandom. Trained in finance at Auburn University and the University of Alabama, he began his career in quantitative finance before moving into early web ventures, including Bomis and the free encyclopedia project Nupedia. In 2001, he launched Wikipedia, which quickly became one of the most visited websites in the world. To support its growth, he established the Wikimedia Foundation in 2003, where he continues to serve on the Board of Trustees and act as a public spokesperson. He later co-founded Fandom in 2004, expanding the wiki model to entertainment, gaming, and niche communities. Wales has also pursued experiments in collaborative journalism, including WikiTribune and its successor WT Social. His work in open knowledge has earned recognition from organizations such as the World Economic Forum, Time magazine, UNESCO, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. He has held fellowships and board roles at institutions including Harvard’s Berkman Center and Creative Commons.
