From data and numbers to insights
Posted: Mon Dec 23, 2024 6:09 am
Generative AI allows you to digest large volumes of data tables and turn them into relevant information, including insights that allow you to understand trends, patterns and decipher unknowns. Not every curator is a specialist in economic, financial or medical scientific data, in that sense AI can give you simple and understandable summaries, without bias.
Here is a simulated example of a prompt to analyze a table with 20 months of sales:
Background: I am a journalist/content curator working on an article/analysis on trends in [specific topic, e.g. “tech sales”] over the past 20 months. I have compiled a table with detailed figures by month including units sold and revenue generated.
Table provided: The table includes the following columns: Month, Units Sold, Total Revenue.
Data covers from [month/year] to [month/year].
Analysis Request: Detailed Description: Please provide a detailed description of the trends observed in sales and revenue during this period.
Pattern Identification: Are there any seasonal or anomalous patterns that might be of interest to readers?
Influencing Factors: Based on the data, what factors might have influenced the spikes and dips in sales?
Suggested Visualizations: What types of graphics would you recommend to effectively illustrate these trends in the post?
Conclusions and Projections: What conclusions can be drawn from this data and how could these trends affect the market in the future?
Ultimate Goal: My goal is to interpret this data in a way that can give readers a clear understanding of market trends and provide insights based on the analysis of the numbers.
Which generative AI tools to use
There are multiple websites, applications and software that use AI and many of them are very useful for content curators . That is why we asked Enrique Giles, Content and New Digital Business Manager at Interlatin, to describe the AI tools he has used and that have helped him improve his productivity in content curation.
Of the tools he uses, three are very convenient for content curators:
Grammarly . Offers grammar, proofreading, plagiarism detection turkey phone code services. Improves writing quality by ensuring clarity.
ChatGPT - Generates texts, article drafts, writing suggestions, provides ideas, summaries and translations.
Jasper Create original content for SEO purposes, identify creative insights to understand which content lasts longer.
Giles says he also relies on AI to generate approaches to the audience he is going to address. Thanks to the prompts he has already developed, he manages to make AI work for him, which is a fundamental requirement for using it effectively.
“Many people use AI in the same way they would use Google: they type in a keyword and the first thing they find is what they think they are looking for, but that is not necessarily it. If you can get AI to learn what you want, allowing it to work for you and not generate light writing, it will be a valuable support for content curators.”
