User research that once took three weeks now takes about two hours. Daniel Layfield at Diligent has lived both versions. Daniel described the old way at Codecademy: find a hundred users, email every one, spend weeks getting them on the phone, then synthesize by hand. Now his team points AI at existing sales calls through Gong and gets a solid synthesis in an hour or two. His verdict? Claude is a pretty good data scientist, at least for simple A/B test analysis. Where could AI collapse weeks of research into an afternoon for you?
