FreeTH2PR2PNW2A Data/Business Analyst who feeds clean, well-explored data into an agent gets trustworthy answers — agents amplify bad data as easily as good.
- The EDA mindset reframed: question, inspect, question again — now with GenAI as a reasoning partner
- Where LLMs help EDA (profiling, summarizing, narrating) vs where they hallucinate (counts, exact stats)
- The agent-ready EDA workflow: collect → clean → explore → document for retrieval
- Open a sample CSV in a notebook and paste its head into an LLM, asking three exploratory questions

- Write a one-page 'first questions' list for a sample dataset, marking which you'd ask an LLM vs compute yourself
- Micro-task: submit your questions
