I've been experimenting with Perplexity in my AI data, but I can't fully recommend it yet since my experiments are incomplete. However, so far, I like it.
As for charting and visualization tools, if you're building a webpage (internally or externally), I recommend using eCharts and DataWrapper. They're both free and easily accessible at the following links:
If you prefer connecting your data to a data analytics solution, the best advanced-solution is Google Data Studio (Looker Studio). It's free to use and there are plenty of resources available to help you learn how to use it seamlessly.
Great discussion topic, Claudia!
From my project management perspective, I've found these tools particularly valuable for Gen AI initiatives: SQL Server for data management, Google Sheets with advanced functions (VLOOKUP, SUMIF, pivot tables...) for data analysis and preprocessing, and traditional project management frameworks with milestone tracking and resource allocation.
Key Learning: The most indispensable tool is not technical but establishing clear evaluation frameworks and success metrics upfront. This helps assess effectiveness and ensures alignment with organizational objectives. Saving Changes...

Hello Claudia and all,
Having just started out in our AI journey, we are just researching various tools in the GenAI arena. ChatGPT is being used by a few of us to improve processes and later we may look at Microsoft CoPilot as a tool. Google Gemini is being used in a few places as well. Saving Changes...

I have used chatGPT Plus frequently to ask and get feedback about my document template or even an email reply.
Same here ChatGPT Plus I use frequently. Copilot is a big one too if you want to gather action items or create meeting minutes. I do like running the meeting minutes to ChatGPT to fine tune it. Also I have noticed that project management tools like Jira are using AI features to create automations or write JQL faster. Saving Changes...
I use Co-pilot for notes, transcription and documenting actions. Co-pilot also generates risk registers based on templates and previous risks for similar projects. Windsurf has been used to convert design into configuration and langflow is the AI Agent tool being used to improve the sales to design workflow for delivery teams. Saving Changes...

Presenting data is definitely something we're using AI for. Once we have more and better data, it's going to be even more essential to garner insights. But I like the fact that we, as project managers, are going to continue to be necessary to ensure the results are logical, unbiased, and useful - allowing us to generate significant business value.
