Chat GPT and the Insee nomenclature

A large part of our business at Trendeois to classify information, particularly by sector of activity. We recently asked CHATGPT AIwith very...human results 👇

The aim was to classify, in the Insee nomenclature, a company that"develops in-orbit research and production modules for researchers and manufacturers in the life sciences and health sectors" (for the curious, this is SpacePharma).

The business is in the biotechnology sector (defined by Insee), but also in engineering, machine production and aerospace. We asked the digital oracle to help us decide, and he replied:"According to the Insee nomenclature (Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques), such a company can be classified in the following activity category: 30.30Z Manufacture of optical and photographic equipment".

The mischievous AI has combined the subclass"30.30Z Construction of aeronautics and space" with a wording it also liked, which is actually that of subclass 26.70Z.

A kind of creativity that neither our analysts norINSEE can afford!

Probably closer to the compromise a schoolboy or girl might work out when faced with a totally new and incongruous question.

In the end, we classified this project in our database as R&D (type of activity) and pharmaceuticals (sector), with an Aeronautics sector tag, bearing in mind that the APE code remains in our database and is intangible.
