Building a GPT-style Assistant for historical incident analysis

A team of data scientists and engineers developed a GPT-style AI Assistant for historical incident analysis. They started by creating a proof-of-concept (PoC) in one week to test the feasibility of using an assistant to help users create complex visualizations and derive insights from them. OpenAI's release of their API, Assistants, provided new possibilities for the project as it allowed the creation of segregated assistants with intimate knowledge of incident data. The team then focused on improving performance and error rate metrics during a two-week period. After gathering feedback from beta users, they made final adjustments before launching the feature to all customers.
