André, the chatbot that deciphers the French elections
Focus of the letter 23
The focus of the week will therefore be André! From the evolution of the turnout rate to the local results, this application based on open data and Claude will answer questions about the French elections.
So yes, this chatbot is hyper specialized. Yes, it only answers on the subject of elections. And yes, it even only deals with France for a short period of time (sorry for this passing chauvinism, readers outside France!).
But above all, with a big YES, we have here a realization that accompanies everyone in the understanding of complex data, YES the data is chosen with rigor, YES this application produces relevant syntheses and visualizations and finally YES its author, Joël Gombin knows the issues of political sociology, data and AI.
With these four YES, André seems to me to be a useful tool for everyone: from curious citizens to analysts. All the more so in this French election period, where speeches are too often fuelled by the latest approximate figure that will make people talk…
To be used without moderation, to inform oneself or to verify, with all the same, as we all do systematically, a proofreading and verification of the answers provided? At least perhaps we can try to commit ourselves to doing it a little more? 😉
