Changing Perceptions of Big Data

From Inside Analysis.  Here I disagree in one sense and agree in another. .  It is true that it has never entirely been about the size of the data.  What we have seen is that we are moving away from the hype that has been seen in the last several years.  As I have said here many times, it is about what you can do with new data, large or small.  It reminds me of the view of artificial intelligence in the late 80s.  Where a rapid change in perception caused a whole market, with valuable insights,  to collapse.  Good piece other than that assumption, and the perhaps unintended consequences.
