$\begingroup$ Not all problems that need solving are "big data" problems. We still need good methods for "small data" problems today. The difficulty in "big data" seems to be not inferential, but computational. For small data problems, handling the data is trivial, but the problem of inference is had. We should aim to have tools and skills for both kinds of problem, at least as a community if not as individuals. $\endgroup$
