Not really. Humans are more or less incapable of filtering noise and avoiding making premature choices in realtime. "OMFG, this story blipped upward in a statistically insignificant way. Hype it!" Myself and a colleage ran this experiment several times at a large news organization. Realtime is useful for algorithms, useless for humans.

Of course if you are marketing an analytics product, give the customer a realtime dashboard. It's useless but it makes them feel powerful and in control. The news writers would certainly have thrown a fit if we tried to take away their useless chartbeat.
