BIG NEWS: #ChatGPT breaks #Python vs #R Barriers in Data Science!

Data science teams everywhere rejoice.

A mind-blowing thread (with a FULL chatgpt prompt walkthrough). 🧵

#datascience #rstats
It's NOT R VS Python ANYMORE!

This is 1 example of how ChatGPT can speed up data science & GET R & PYTHON people working together.

(it blew my mind)
This example combines #R, #Python, and #Docker.

I created this example in under 10 minutes from start to finish.
I’m an R guy.

And I prefer doing my business research & analysis in R.

It's awesome. It has:

1. Tidyverse - data wrangling + visualization
2. Tidymodels - Machine Learning
3. Shiny - Apps
But the rest of my team prefers Python.

And they don't like R... it's just weird to them.

So I wanted to see if I could show them how we could work together...
Let’s start with a prompt.

I asked chatgpt to find a data set that I used for this example. Image
...ChatGPT found it... Image
... And gave me this code to read the data... Image
I prefer the tidyverse, so I asked Chatgpt to update the code. Image
That looks better. Image
With the data in hand, it’s time for some Data Science.

I asked this simple question. Image
ChatGPT's response was impressive. Image
But, even though I’m an R guy, my team uses Python for Deployment…

In the past, that’s a huge problem.

(resulting in days of translations from R to Python with Google and StackOverflow)
But now, that’s 1 minute of effort with chatGPT.

Can I show you?
I asked chatgpt to convert the R script to python... Image
And in 10 seconds chatgpt made this python code with pandas and scikit learn. Image
ChatGPT did in 10 seconds something that would have taken me 2 hours.

But let’s continue.

The reason we had to convert to Python is for “deployment”

Deployment is just a fancy word for allowing others to access my model so they can use it on-demand.
So I asked chatGPT this: Image
And ChatGPT made me a Python API using FastAPI. Image
But this code is useless…

… Without a docker environment.

So I asked chatGPT to make one: Image
And chatGPT delivered my Docker Environment's Dockerfile: Image
So in under 10 minutes, I had ChatGPT:

1. Make my research script in R.

2. Create my production script in Python for my Team

3. And create the API + Docker File to deploy it.
But when I showed my Python team, instead of excited...

...They were worried.

And I said, "Listen. There's nothing to be afraid of."

"ChatGPT is a productivity enhancer."

They didn't believe me.
My Conclusion:

You have a choice. You can rule AI.

Or, you can let AI rule you.

What do you think the better choice is?
If you want help, I'd like you to join me on a free #ChatGPT for #DataScientists Workshop on April 26th. And I will help you Rule AI.

What's the next step?

A Python Library for Time Series using Hidden Markov Models.

Let me introduce you to hmmlearn. Image
1. Hidden Markov Models

A Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is a statistical model that describes a sequence of observable events where the underlying process generating those events is not directly visible, meaning there are "hidden states" that influence the observed data, but you can only see the results of those states, not the states themselvesImage
2. HMM for Time Series with hmmlearn

hmmlearn implements the Hidden Markov Models (HMMs).

We can use HMM for time series. Example: Using HMM to understand earthquakes.

❌Move over PowerBI. There's a new AI analyst in town.

💡Introducing ThoughtSpot. Image
1. AI Analyst

ThoughtSpot’s Spotter is an AI analyst that uses generative AI to answer complex business questions in natural language, delivering visualizations and insights instantly.

It supports iterative querying (e.g., “What’s next?”) without predefined dashboards. Image
2. Self-Service Analytics

Unlike Tableau and Power BI, which rely on structured dashboards, ThoughtSpot emphasizes self-service analytics with a search-based interface, making it accessible to non-technical users.

Its AI-driven approach feels like “ChatGPT for data.” Image

Top 7 most important statistical analysis concepts that have helped me as a Data Scientist.

This is a complete 7-step beginner ROADMAP for learning stats for data science. Let's go: Image
Step 1: Learn These Descriptive Statistics

Mean, median, mode, variance, standard deviation. Used to summarize data and spot variability. These are key for any data scientist to understand what’s in front of them in their data sets. Image
2. Learn Probability

Know your distributions (Normal, Binomial) & Bayes’ Theorem. The backbone of modeling and reasoning under uncertainty. Central Limit Theorem is a must too. Image
