AI Generated Explanations and Queries (BETA)

We have upgraded the RHS Explain function to provide BETA access to two new AI powered functions that aim to make it easier and faster to understand insights.

  1. Explanation - Provides an AI generated summary of your verbatim examples

  2. Query - Enables you to ask an adhoc query of your verbatim examples

The original Themes wordcloud is still available under the 'Themes' option.

AI Generated Explanations (BETA)

If you select the Explain/Explanation view then you will see an AI Generated summary of the verbatim that relate to the pattern you are previewing.

This is an early access BETA implementation and works in the following way:

  • Ipiphany selects a sample of the verbatim comments (around 50 sentences) that relate to the preview pattern (called the target topic).

  • It then uses an LLM (currently GPT4) to generate a summary of the 5 main points that relate to the target topic

  • Then displays this summary

Note that

  • Generating this summary currently can take 15-30 seconds - so a little patience is required

  • You can click on other patterns and the explanation summary will automatically regenerate for the new pattern

  • This is an early BETA feature and we will be working to improve the quality of these summaries so any feedback is very welcome

Using your own prompt to summarize

Also if you want to use your own prompt for generating this summary then you can select the 'Custom' option at the bottom and enter your own:

1) Click on 'Summary' at the bottom

2) Change 'Summary' to 'Custom' and enter your own prompt


Note: You can use the placeholder ${target} to reference the pattern name

3) The Explanation will update to display the results using your prompt

(You can click on your prompt to edit)

AI Powered Queries (BETA)

The second BETA feature we have released is a chat style interface to query your verbatim examples.

This feature works in a similar way to Explanation, but lets you ask different questions about the same pattern examples.

Tips for writing queries

  • Use the placeholder ${target} to reference the pattern name

  • You can instruct the AI to format how you like e.g. list, paragraph etc

  • You can include instructions to limit the size of the output e.g. 200 words or top 5 points

Other Changes

  • The ability to view the Dataset Request summary has been added to the Dataset/Settings/Data tab. Select 'View Details' from the menu to view the same summary that appears in the import notification emails.

  • Added feature to support Bulk Reprocess and Resume Processing for data requests

Fixed Bugs/Issues

  • Fixed bug preventing import of data in CSV files in some browser versions

  • Fixed issue that prevented user friendly error message being reported when uploaded files exceeded file size limit

  • Fixed issue that prevented the creation of new connections for some datasets

  • Fixed issue that prevented New Accounts from being created in some situations

  • Fixed issue that prevented Failed datasets from being deleted
