540: Self Service with AI Part 2 - Governance, Skills, & Validation

Mike & Tommy dive into the second half of the AI self-service analytics story, tackling governance, skills, and validation — and why giving everyone the ability to ask questions of data raises the stakes, not just the speed.

They break down what a "Skill" actually means in Power BI terms, who owns the wrong answer when Claude writes the query, and how BI teams can build validation checkpoints that create trust without grinding the business to a halt.

Also discussed: Replit's Microsoft partnership and Skills for Fabric in other harnesses.
