I like your view.
From my limited knowledge, I speculate that if AI was developed further, and given as much publicly available data across a variety of scholarly topics as reasonably possible, it could potentially use statistics and such to help us find correlations across many different fields that a human would never think of. Whether it would revolutionize analytics or not I don't know as I am not qualified to say, but it's fun to dream of positive change these tools could bring.
