We are testing our 'Artificial Intelligence Search' interface, using Chat GPT Edu to allow you to query the data by asking user friendly questions. This is a 'Custom GPT', preloaded with the full textual content of the BAPD, and trained to make searching easier. Note, this will take you to the third party Chat GPT site, and we have no control over the content. You will need a Chat GPT account to use the search - you can sign up for a free account on the search page if you don't already have one.

You can query the pottery database using natural language, in a language of your preference. You can ask it to analyse the data to help with your research or interests. The more questions you ask, the more it will learn your interests and hopefully produce more relevant results and insights.

NB. Chat GPT can sometimes get forgetful. If it asks you to upload data, simply type "load data" and it will load the data that it already has.

Click on the AI Search button below to get started, or first have a look at some screenshots of sample conversations below to give you some ideas of what to ask.
