Problem the AI is intended to solve

We are often found using optical evaluation on specimens that do not necessarily have a textbook approach to evaluation. By feeding into the knowledge base and creating an agent Chat GSFC can give some reasonable evaluation and cross reference our thoughts with related publications. It can also recommend test data and perform evaluations of the raw data, say from an XRD readout rather quickly as compared to doing it by hand. The key is to feed it known calibrated data for its knowledge base.
