Observatory of Examples of How Open Data and Generative AI Intersect

A growing observatory of examples of how open data from official sources and generative artificial intelligence (AI) are intersecting across domains and geographies.

Share your project for inclusion. We seek to learn from generative AI initiatives that use open government and research data across a Spectrum of Scenarios. More information on each scenario can be found in our report: A Fourth Wave of Open Data? Exploring the Spectrum of Scenarios for Open Data and Generative AI.

ClassifAI

The Data Science Campus of the United Kingdom's Office for National Statistics has developed ClassifAI, an experimental tool that uses large language models to organize text into categories (e.g. industry). It aims to improve upon existing classification methods by offering greater flexibility and potentially higher accuracy for tasks such as categorizing labor market survey responses. The code has been released as open-source. The developers note that further assessment is needed before potential use in official statistics production.
