How can businesses use OpenAI

The OpenAI Platform brings ChatGPT's capabilities to business applications by providing an integration API and a user-friendly playground for experimenting, tuning prompts, and analyzing responses. Operating on the same models ChatGPT does, it unlocks the potential of huge ready-to-use machine learning-enabled language models, trained on hundreds of billions of articles, for further integration. So, businesses can leverage the capabilities of generative AI for software systems to enhance interaction with users and automate a wide range of tasks with a simplicity never available before.

Transform long texts into comprehensible summaries

Summaries for CMS

Case management systems handle a large volume of incoming requests. Employees have to read through each to determine who is responsible for its execution, what priority it has, and what the desired outcome should be. A condensed summary of the case would significantly simplify such pre-screening and minimize processing downtime. However, manually writing summaries for multiple long texts is a repetitive task, ineffective and costly. Integrating a case management system with an OpenAI tool would help create case summaries quickly without much effort from staff members.

Keynoting transcripts

Most people working or studying remotely have experienced a “this meeting should’ve been an email” situation. It is not always possible to join a call, watch a video, or read an entire conversation thread due to connectivity problems or lack of time. Automatically available keynotes help everyone to stay in the loop and get abreast of the latest business ideas, discussions and updates.

Product description summary for ecommerce

Usually, ecommerce platforms have long and detailed descriptions for each product to give customers full information about their purchase. However, due to customers’ shortening attention span, short and catchy AI-generated product summaries can prove valuable and more engaging. Besides standalone product pages, ecommerce websites also include pages with multiple product offerings, each with a short description to grab a potential buyer’s attention and give an idea of the product. However, these brief descriptions usually consist of the beginning of longer ones, not the condensed version. Integrating AI tools and generating specific short versions of product descriptions would quickly and easily make the catalog more appealing and informative to the customers.

YouTube video transcript summary

The most straightforward example of this use case is a YouTube Summary Google extension powered by a GPT model. The idea is that a video transcript is fed to ChatGPT which delivers a short rundown of the story. A similar solution can handle instantaneous transcription and summary of video content from any platform beyond YouTube. One can also go beyond a simple summary, extracting action items or a list of key points from the text.

Extract structured data from unstructured texts

Transferring datasets from a long text into form-based systems like CRM, ERP, or order management is a time-consuming task. Automating this process will significantly speed it up, improving the effectiveness of different departments within a company. Despite the challenges of applying AI algorithms to such tasks, like the occasional inaccuracies of selected information, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Extract entities and attributes

Automatically showing key characteristics of a product derived from a full commercial description on an ecommerce platform would spare a copywriter from duplicating each text and help avoid fatigue-associated mistakes. Furthermore, product characteristics can also be automatically input in the order form or the integrated warehouse management system, saving the organization even more time.

The opposite functionality is also useful for ecommerce and real estate organizations’ content creation. Content managers who work with an online customer platform can place natural-sounding product or property descriptions automatically generated from key attributes of a particular product. This will eliminate the need for a dedicated content writer and reduce item listing time.

Enrich data with information from third-party sources

Enrich data with information from third-party sources

Sometimes data already at the company’s disposal is not enough. This is why multiple industries rely on data enrichment to boost targeted marketing campaigns, score more leads, comply with regulations, or prevent fraud. OpenAI has crawled data volumes larger than most businesses and startups can afford to gather, so integrating it with a document management system can help to close information gaps quickly and provide more valuable insights.

Paraphrase existing text examples

Sometimes it is difficult to find a synonym for one word, let alone craft multiple versions of the same text, ensuring their uniqueness. However, unique phrasing is often what draws attention to the message, especially in areas where similar messages are sent and received daily. ChatGPT-like text generators can create a variety of texts with the same meaning but phrased differently.

Examples of AI writing tools

LinkedIn conversation co-pilot Engage AI is based on the same natural language processing (NLP) principle and can write human-like responses to posts in a tone chosen by the user. It could be helpful for people who engage in multiple conversations on LinkedIn to increase their visibility to the target audience.

  • Grammarly
    the popular grammar checking and editing app
  • OwlyWriter
    the social media post-writing helper, introduced by Hootsuite
  • DeeplWrite
    the AI helper improving written English and German.

Compare and integrate texts

Looking through long passages, comparing them, and summarizing the essence of each text to compile another meaningful description is an everyday task for people involved in academia, ecommerce, life sciences, healthcare, and other fields. While in some cases, the accuracy of the result is paramount, in many others getting the job done fast is more important, which is where OpenAI integrations can help.

AI-generated product recommendations

Comparing texts lays a foundation for another use case which includes suggesting products to potential customers.

Why use an AI model
  • Software that uses data about customers (e.g., age, location, income) to make real-time product suggestions already exists on the market.
  • However, employing AI models to execute the same task can reduce your expenses on additional tools.
How it works
  • It works simply by comparing descriptions of products a customer has already looked through to other available items.
  • Then, an AI-driven system suggests products similar in functionality but different in style or price range to potential buyers.

Text categorization and sentiment analysis

Content monitoring takes up a substantial amount of content moderators’ and analysts’ time, especially if they are in charge of a large platform. AI tools that sort content (text, image, scores, etc.) based on a predefined characteristic can simplify the task. From finding and deleting “trolling” comments on product listings to determining the percentage of genuinely satisfied customers, OpenAI can provide carefully selected data for further analysis and management.

Example of sentiment analysis

One of the best chatGPT use cases that could help an ecommerce business manage their goodwill and upgrade customer experience today is discovering negative comments about their product. They can follow up on them, either changing the description, updating the product, or shutting out trolls.

For each comment return if it is negative or positive:

1

Considering this item with caution. Moreover, while the product claims to have insulation, it feels incredibly light and almost non-existent. If you're seeking warmth, this piece is so thin that I doubt it will fulfill that requirement. It might serve better as a lightweight layering middle layer. Additionally, the zipper seems to be constructed with delicate and flimsy materials. In fact, it was so lightweight and flimsy on this garment that I encountered significant difficulty when attempting to rezip it.

Negative
2

I was in search of a lightweight jacket that could serve as my go-to for everyday use and could conveniently pack down for travel purposes. This item perfectly meets those requirements and provides remarkable warmth. Personally, I find its aesthetic even more appealing than similar products, and it actually feels a bit warmer to me.

Positive
3

First of all, I must commend the excellent fit of this jacket. It serves as a fantastic option for spring and summer, effectively shielding against wind and providing decent water resistance for a considerable amount of time. Overall, I am highly satisfied with this jacket. The only downside was a shipping mishap that resulted in a slightly delayed arrival, which is my sole complaint.

Positive
4

I wish this jacket was available in a slim fit and included an Xsmall size option. The small size jacket I ordered turned out to be excessively large, and I felt like I was swimming in it. I already own a black bomber jacket in size Xsmall, which I absolutely love. I had hoped to find something similar with this purchase, but unfortunately, it was not a match at all.

Negative
5

The material of this item is undeniably robust, and it boasts impressive waterproof properties in both directions. However, it's important to note that wearing this garment might result in feeling excessively hot. It functions more like a sweat suit, and any physical activity or increase in body heat could leave you feeling drenched underneath it.

Positive
