OpenAI announced the launch of a data work tool in ChatGPT Work. According to OpenAI News, it connects to corporate data, helps find insights, and creates interactive dashboards using natural language.
The significance of this news lies in shifting part of analytical work into a conversational format: users do not need to start with a pre-prepared query or a set of tools. This could be particularly important for teams that need to quickly move from corporate data to a visual representation of results.
Details regarding supported data sources, availability, limitations, and security measures are absent from the presented synopsis. There is also no independent confirmation.
