Hey folks, I've been wondering if anyone's tried getting ChatGPT to whip up graphs? Like, can it actually generate them or help with plotting data somehow? Would love to hear what yall think or if you've found any tricks!

I asked ChatGPT about making charts the other day, and it can totally help you write the code for them but it doesn't actually create the image itself. So like, you get Python matplotlib or something generated, then run it yourself.
Has anyone tried integrating ChatGPT with a plotting library in real time? Like a bot that makes graphs from chat input?
If you want fully automated graph images, there are better tools out there for that purpose. ChatGPT is more like your coding buddy.
I used ChatGPT to help me understand how to use ggplot2 in R. It gave me a step by step guide and example code that worked perfectly!
Honestly, I think it’s a bit misleading if ppl expect it to just spit out graphs like images. It’s all about the code or explaining how to make them, not generating pics directly.
