Data analysis with GLM-5

GLM-5 can turn a question about your data into a SQL query or a pandas script, explain what the result means, and spot problems in messy tables. GLM-5.3 Flash can also read a chart or a screenshot of a dashboard. Here is how to use it safely.

§ 02Prompts

Copy-ready prompts

Open any prompt in the chat, then replace the bracketed parts with your own material.

Question to SQL

I have these tables: [describe tables and columns]. Write a SQL query for [question]. Use CTEs, comment each step, and point out any assumptions you made about the data.

Clean a dataset

Write a pandas script that loads [file], fixes these problems: [list problems], and prints a short report of what changed. Include checks for missing values and duplicates.

Explain a result

Here is the output of my analysis. Explain in plain language what it shows, what it does not prove, and three follow-up questions I should check. [paste table]

§ 03Tips

Do this, avoid that

Do

  • Describe the schema and data types.
  • Use sample or anonymised data.
  • Ask it to state its assumptions.
  • Run the code and check the numbers yourself.

Avoid

  • Do not paste personal or confidential records.
  • Do not trust totals you have not verified.
  • Do not confuse correlation with causation.
  • Do not run destructive queries without review.
