Just Ask Your Computer
Now You Can.
Install a few tools. Ask your computer a question. Watch it answer.
The Story
Someone wanted to know whether traffic cameras in their city actually correlate with accident hotspots.
They didn't write code. They didn't hire a developer. They didn't spend three weeks on it.
They asked their computer. It found the open data. It wrote the Python code. It ran the statistics. It gave them a 10-page report with 19 tables and a logistic regression.
That's what these tools do. You have a question — your computer handles the rest.
