Analyzing unstructured data in BigQuery with Vertex AI

Analyzing your unstructured data, such as images and free-form text, has long required machine learning expertise to draw out insights. BigQuery and Vertex AI are changing that by bringing pre-trained machine learning capabilities to your unstructured data in BigQuery via the BigQueryML Inference Engine.

In this video, we'll give you an overview of these capabilities and walk through a demo of how you can analyze and enhance your unstructured data, all with the familiarity of SQL and without ever leaving your data warehouse!

Agreed, cost is a very important kwarg for this

This looks like a very cool project and it's interesting to see how the technology works. Although, Google Cloud Platform provides a pricing page, it's not easy to figure out how much a small project like this would cost utilzing the models mentioned, BigQueryML and the database warehouse itself. Let's say you have 1000 movie posters, how much would a project like this cost? Then, once you have the data, what are some use cases - i.e. could you do with it?
