Klappentext

Upgrade your analytics with AI—from generating code to optimizing your workflows!

Data Analysis with AI and R: Using OpenAI, Copilot, and aider shows you how to improve your R code and data analytics workflows using the power of Large Language Models (LLMs) and generative AI. Beginners and veterans alike will find essential techniques, prompts, and tutorials that will make you a more productive—and a more valuable—R data professional.

In Data Analysis with AI and R, you’ll learn how to:

• Write better R code faster with AI
• Use AI to plan more complex R projects
• Systematically integrate feedback and tests generated by AI tools
• Integrate OpenAI’s GPT models into data analytics workflows
• Recognize and overcome the limitations of LLMs

It’s no secret that AI is changing the way we code, and R is no exception. Data Analysis with AI and R introduces powerful AI techniques that will improve your speed and accuracy writing R programs and help you create effective data analysis pipelines. You’ll start by using ChatGPT to write a ggplot2 data visualization script, and progress to writing LLM-supported R functions for everyday analytics tasks and creating an analytics pipeline with the help of Copilot and aider.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
