I am trying to add a “quick forecast” section to my home screen, and have the option to expand it for a “detailed forecast” (or link it to another screen that has that info if necessary). I want it to use Ai to create this forecast data based on its knowledge, as well as the users data (if available) for certain time frames and categories. I have no idea how to set this up. I have used both Grok 4 and ChatGPT many, many times and they have had me create numerous columns across my tables to try to get the required users data and none of the attempts have worked.
Could you clarify what kind of forecast you’re aiming to generate? When you mention “its knowledge,” are you referring to historical data already stored in Glide, or something else?
I’m asking because, in my experience, if you’re simply projecting future values based on past data using set rules or formulas, that’s typically a deterministic process - something Glide’s built-in features or formulas may be able to handle well.
AI is most useful when you want to uncover patterns, make predictions from complex or incomplete data, or generate insights that aren’t easily defined by fixed rules.
