The DC Compass AI assistant is a generative AI chat interface that provides answers to user queries based on datasets from Open Data DC. The interface can provide a summary of a dataset, supporting visualizations, graphs, and other maps. Currently, this project is a pilot program running a beta test open to the public. The team notes that the quality of the output is impacted by the quality of the data from Open Data DC as well as the breadth of data included.
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.
