In this practical session, participants will learn how LLMs like ChatGPT can assist in writing machine learning code for journalistic investigations.
We’ll start by prompting ChatGPT to generate code for analyzing a small dataset. Then, we’ll apply the code to a larger dataset locally. After attending this session, participants will be able to train and use this machine learning model on their own.
