Data Design by Dialogue: Visualizing Data with LLMs

Submitted Apr 13, 2025

In this live session, we’ll walk through how to go from a bare prompt to a polished, shareable chart—entirely by conversing with an LLM. Along the way, you’ll see real demos, such as this Web Features explorer, Elimination Game, LLM mental math evaluation, etc. and learn to:

  • Use ChatGPT instead of Jupyter Notebooks, Figma, or D3 as the canvas for data storytelling
  • Engineer prompts that generate valid data analyses and visualizations
  • Iteratively refine axis scales, colors and annotations without writing a single line of code
  • Automate interpretation: ask the model for captions, tooltips, and data insights
  • Spotlight future trends: what generative data art looks like in six months

TAKEAWAYS

  • A “prompt recipe” for different kinds of data storytelling
  • Best practices for human-in-the-loop chart debugging
  • A checklist for deploying LLM-generated visualizations
  • Inspiration for turning prompts into dynamic data art

If you’re a data storyteller, designer, or a developer, this session will spark ideas on how to discover deeper insights from data and automate your data storytelling process using LLMs via real-life techniques.

Anand is an LLM psychologist at Straive. (It’s not an official title. He just calls himself that.) He co-founded Gramener, a data science company that narrates visual data stories, which Straive acquired. He has hand-transcribed every Calvin & Hobbes strip ever and dreams of watching every film on the IMDb Top 250.
