Experimenting with AI for Data Analysis - Epimorphics

When we last experimented with Large Language Models (LLMs), and their embodiment in agents like ChatGPT, we had mixed results. Applying ChatGPT-3, as it was then, to the problem of data modelling and ontology generation we found it impressive but ultimately the results were superficial and of limited use for practical modelling work in its […]
