This chapter covers

- Why ChatGPT is the ideal tool for data analysis
As you saw in the first chapter, ChatGPT’s Code Interpreter, now known as Advanced Data Analysis, can analyze documents you upload to it and generate a response in seconds. OpenAI released this feature on July 6, 2023, and is currently available to all ChatGPT’s users. A few months ago, the plugin was renamed Advanced Data Analysis to better reflect its data analytics capabilities, which are its primary use case. It is now an integral part of ChatGPT, meaning you only need to input the prompt, and it will automatically detect and run the analysis for you. For consistency, we will be referring to this feature as “Advanced Data Analysis” throughout the rest of this book.
