Hey folks, I've been wondering if ChatGPT can actually help with statistical analysis. Like, can it crunch numbers or just explain concepts? Anyone tried using it for real stats work? Would love to hear your thoughts or experiences!

Honestly, if you need solid statistical analysis, better stick to R or Python. ChatGPT helps with concepts but not heavy calculations.
I've used it to help understand stats formulas better but not for actual number crunching. It’s more like a tutor than a calculator imo.
I got ChatGPT to explain p-values and confidence intervals in a way that finally made sense to me. So that’s something!
I tried asking it to run a regression, but it ended up just showing me the steps instead of the actual stats results. Kinda useful tho for learning!
Tried to do some t-tests with it but it couldn’t actually perform the test, only showed formulas. Still kinda helpful tho.
