ChatGPT, a Brisbane-based artificial intelligence tool, has assisted professionals like accountant Jason Andrew in tackling dreaded tasks like data extraction from PDFs. Jason, the Director and Head of Growth from SBO Financial, recently used ChatGPT to save time while restructuring copied data from a PDF into Excel. Instead of spending hours on manual labour, Jason found ChatGPT could do it in seconds. He was so impressed with the efficiency that he may use it again.
Despite ChatGPT being an intimidating task-solver, extracting data from PDFs is still quite difficult and can be time-consuming. The format of the PDF and any tables must be taken into account before compatible with ChatGPT. The tool can take a while to be accurate if it’s a difficult task. That being said, the software is there to fix any mistakes that may occur when it’s done.
ChatGPT is a great way for professionals to take on tedious tasks with much more efficiency and accuracy than manual labour. It’s still a challenge as some tasks can be incredibly time consuming but, with the help of ChatGPT, time can be saved, accuracy can be improved and problems can be fixed quickly.
