AI-generated dashboards promise faster insight, but most implementations fail in real products. The issue is not model quality. It is architecture.  

Production-ready AI-generated dashboards must operate inside the analytics lifecycle, not outside it. That means intent detection rather than query generation, metadata rather than SQL, and reuse rather than constant creation. When AI respects security, business language, and existing workflows, dashboards become durable product assets.  

This approach shifts analytics from one-off answers to embedded decision support that scales across users, tenants, and use cases.
