To help improve the accessibility and usability of their open data platform, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is prototyping a new generative AI tool that they are calling StatGPT. StatGPT will act as a user interface that processes natural language requests to find relevant datasets from the IMF’s repository. StatGPT will help users find indicators, visualize data in tables and charts, and generate Python code for analysis. The team is currently developing interface features and will then seek to integrate it in Excel.
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.
