Problem the AI is intended to solve

This use case intends to solve the problem of the time-consuming process of manually searching internal ICE resources for dataset information to create logical data definitions.

Expected benefits

The chatbot is expected to help the Data Management Team quickly locate relevant SharePoint information and assist in reviewing and refining data element information. By reducing the time spent searching for information and creating logical data definitions, the chatbot enables personnel to focus on higher-value tasks.

System outputs

The AI produces text responses to user queries and generates candidate logical table and column names, which Data Management Team personnel review and validate against source information and may incorporate into ICE’s internal data catalog.
