S Venkatraman, S. Brindha, G Lakshmi, V Myvizhi Selvi, J Sandhya · 2024
Academic institutions rely on classroom timetables for smooth functioning of classes. Creating timetables, manually, is a time-intensive process. An attempt is made to automate, or semi-automate the process of timetable preparation in the proposed work using conversational AI tool prompts. The prompts can be adjusted to best fit the needs of timetable generation. Another use case discussed in the work is related to summarization of large reports using conversational AI tools. ChatGPT and Claude AI have been utilized to test the said use cases. GPT 4 1106 preview version was used for timetable generation while Claude AI 2.1 was used for report summarization in the work. Results indicate good accuracy and relevancy in the AI-generated outputs, suggesting that conversational AI could alleviate academicians' daily workload to certain extent.
