In these AI-frenzied times, @fifthel is going back to the basics of data. I am attempting to gather my thoughts on enterprise-scale dashboards, where they work, where they fail, and why shadow versions pop up.
4th-5th Dec, limited seats, register now: hasgeek.com/fifthelephant/wi…
Official dashboards. Unofficial spreadsheets. Different numbers in every meeting.
@surbhaai explores why shadow dashboards persist, and how better design can help.

Priyanka Banik of Swiggy explains demand forecasting for Swiggy Instamart. @Swiggy
The problem: if an item goes out of stock, historical sales are not true demand. The model may look fine offline while the business gets lower availability or higher wastage. Classic ML metric mischief.

Hasgeek as a review process that makes talks better than the speaker thought they could be, I experienced this as a speaker in 2025, and very excited to help edit the 2026 version of the conference.
Submission deadline is coming up, do submit your talks and poster ideas!
Last year, @BhogalePrasanna spoke at The Fifth Elephant Winter Edition. This year, he is helping shape it as an editor.
In this reflection recorded in 2025, he describes the care taken to review talks & give feedback & the enthusiastic engagement he experienced after presenting.
If editor @pigol1 says so ...
The quality of the talks and takeaways from @rootconf has only gone up over time. If you work on platforms or the infra layer powering AI applications, agents, and all the jazzy things — attend this edition.
If you have wartime stories or battle scars from building and operating such systems, consider submitting. Happy to chat and help you refine the submission, content, and final talk (if selected).
Cheers!
