- [Instructor] In my experience, when we ask AI tools such as Claude to do too much too soon, it can lead to unintended consequences. It's why I've been quite intentional with my prompts. However, having explored my budget tracker in depth, I feel as though a cumulative P and L chart would really assist with my analysis. You see, the chart here at the moment is showing just the month-by-month results. Now, just a heads up, this is where Claude can sometimes struggle. If we ask it to handle too much at once, processing can slow down significantly. And even with a pro plan such as the one I'm using, you may hit capacity limits sooner than expected. But with that said, let's give it a shot. Can you please make the following targeted amendments to the budget tracker? Add a new line chart that displays the cumulative results including budget and actual profit and loss. That's P and L. I think this would look best placed below the existing chart. That's this one here and above the key insights, and I'm being very specific here about preserving the structure and integrity of the rest of the budget tracker. I really don't want the artifact to be rebuilt just to have targeted amendments made. Let's see how we go. And you may wish to pause this movie whilst Claude completes this task. (lively upbeat music) Okay, let's take a look. I'm just going to open up the artifacts pane on the right-hand side. Make it a little bit larger and then scroll down. Fantastic. This is exactly what I'd asked for. We now have a cumulative P and L chart to accompany the monthly result. The functionality of this budget tracker is sure looking sound to me.
