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.

Alva

Alva is a generative AI chatbot based on GPT 4o-mini that uses RAG to answer queries about Basel-Stadt. A key feature of the chatbot is its ability to provide attributed responses - citing the respective webpage or information source where the response came from. Currently, the chatbot can draw from publicly available information on the Basel-Stadt website (www.bs.ch.)
