This episode explores the use of AI chatbots and tools by consultants, comparing the capabilities of various platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini, and the open-source Llama model. The key findings include:

Each AI tool has unique strengths, from ChatGPT's broad intelligence and reasoning to Claude's focus on ethics and safety. Consultants should choose tools based on their specific needs.

While the AI tools demonstrate high consistency in many tasks, they struggle with spatial reasoning and multi-step problem solving, highlighting the continued importance of human expertise.

The open-source Llama model offers consultants the ability to customize and create unique AI-powered solutions but requires more technical expertise to implement effectively.

Findings emphasize the importance of selecting the appropriate tool based on specific needs rather than solely focusing on a single "best" option. Furthermore, the research highlights the need for human oversight to verify chatbot outputs and address limitations in areas like complex mapping and nuanced reasoning.
