How GPT-3 and OpenAI Are Poised to Change Intelligent Document Processing

Written by Jason Burian | Feb 24, 2023 9:30:24 PM

Large language models and GPT-3 have revolutionized the field of natural language processing. One of the most promising areas where these technologies can be applied is intelligent document processing (IDP).

Intelligent document processing is about the efficient, end-to-end capture of data and information with minimal human intervention. At its core, IDP automates the data-driven processes that power business.

With the increasing amount of data organizations generate every day, tools like intelligent document processing help organizations manage the flow and stay on top of it, rather than drowning in a sea of productivity-sapping paperwork.

It’s easy to see how GPT-3 will play an increasingly important role by helping organizations do even more.

How Can Natural Language Processing Help with Intelligent Document Processing?

Large language models like GPT-3 can assist with intelligent document processing by providing natural language understanding capabilities. This includes things like text summarization, information extraction, and document classification. These capabilities can be used to automatically extract important information from a document, classify it according to its content, and summarize it for easy understanding.

For example, an HR professional could use GPT-3 to extract information from applicant resumes, such as the candidate's name, education, and work experience, and then classify the resume according to the candidate's qualifications. This can save a significant amount of time for recruiters, who would otherwise have to manually review each resume.

GPT-3 can also take the contents of a document and use it to generate summaries or answers to questions. This can be useful for creating executive summaries of long reports or answering frequently asked questions based on the content of a customer service manual.

Additionally, IT professionals can leverage GPT-3 to improve search and retrieval systems for users by better understanding the intent behind a user's query and returning the most relevant documents. For example, a search for "customer service" might return different results than a search for "how to handle a customer complaint." Such an application can make it much easier for users to find the information they need.

Unlimited Application

One of the core strengths of GPT-3 is its ability to understand and mimic human language, making it a powerful tool for natural language processing. Because GPT-3 has been trained on a massive dataset of text, it is capable of understanding and producing a wide range of language styles and formats. That means GPT-3 can be used in just about any industry, from finance and healthcare to retail and customer service.

Conclusion

Large language models like GPT-3 will revolutionize intelligent document automation by providing natural language understanding capabilities such as text summarization, information extraction, and document classification. GPT-3 can also be used to generate text and improve search and retrieval systems, making it a powerful tool for organizations to automate and streamline their document processing.

As natural language processing technology continues to evolve, we can expect to see it become more and more central to the future of intelligent document processing.
