At DataGalaxy, we aim to reduce manual effort for users while enhancing catalog completeness. To achieve this, we are introducing AI-powered description and summary generation.
What does it do for each role?
- For Data Stewards: our AI can generate descriptions and summaries for objects. If there isn't enough context, no description is generated. For multilingual clients, we also provide automatic translations.
- For Data Readers: readers can view AI-generated descriptions and report any inaccuracies when needed.
How to generate a description as a steward
To see if your data catalog can be enriched using an AI-generated description or summary for an object:
- Click the Generate a description button (magic-wand icon) under the relevant attribute, such as Description or Summary. If our AI can generate a high-confidence description, it appears as a suggestion.
- Review the suggestion and accept or reject it. If the suggestion needs to be modified, you can do it after accepting it.
- To check whether other versions of the description can be generated, or to report the suggestion, open the Autodescription menu for the relevant attribute (the magic-wand icon marked Generated by AI), which offers Regenerate and Report AI Output.
If the suggestion is far from your expectations or you consider it incorrect, please report it — it will help our AI adjust.
How does a reader benefit from autogeneration?
A reader can benefit from autogeneration as it increases catalog completeness. In addition, users can report a generated description and help with further improvements.
When do we propose suggestions?
We want to ensure that only trustworthy suggestions are proposed. The suggestion is generated using information about an object's neighborhood: if there are related objects (parents, children, or other linked objects) and we can find at least one described object for each of two different link types, we generate the description (for example, an object has a parent object and a linked object with descriptions).
If you've updated your objects, check whether any new descriptions can now be generated.
