This jives with my experience at a financial services company. I once sat next to the “big data team” and the company 5 year plan was all about delivering analytics and ai to customers using their data the company housed.

The team consisted of one guy (who had a business degree) and a lot of empty cubes they were trying to fill. A year later the company had been acquired and the big data initiative had evaporated.
