8 Understanding stuff better

 

This chapter covers

  • Using GPT to replace large data analytics operations
  • Using GPT to replace sentiment analysis

Since GPT burst into all of our lives, most of our interactions with AI—and most of the book until this point—have focused on generating content of one sort or another. After all, generate is in the name. But not everything is about creating new things. There’s also understanding old things better.

In chapter 5, we used the GPTVectorStoreIndex Python library to better understand some of our own data. But here’s where we take that a bit further and deeper. We’ll do that by using AI to help us find patterns and key details within large datasets (data analytics) and measuring population-scale public opinion using thousands of social media posts (sentiment analysis).

Until now, such tools and insights were normally available only to data professionals. Here we’ll see how they can now be accessed by just about anyone.
