GenBI - A new world where AI meets BI
Proposed session for SQLBits 2026TL; DR
Business Intelligence is evolving beyond dashboards. AI is now the engine driving insights. Imagine asking questions in natural language and instantly generating reports, models, and actionable insights. In this session, we’ll show how Microsoft Copilot and Fabric Data Agents make this a reality for enterprises.
Session Details
Static reports are no longer enough to keep businesses competitive. While they remain essential, organizations now demand dynamic, self-service analytics, ushering in the era of Generative BI (GenBI). In this session, we’ll show how Microsoft Fabric Data Agents enable GenBI capabilities, allowing users to generate insights through natural language and automation. These solutions can be deployed directly into the tools businesses already use, such as Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, or other familiar environments, via Copilot Studio. The vision is simple: analytics should meet the business where it operates, without forcing users to switch platforms or workflows.
