Beyond static charts: Helping AI create visualizations you can explore
Microsoft Research has described Flint-interactive, a system that helps AI agents create data visualizations users can explore directly.
Rather than writing low-level visualization code, users and agents define behaviors with high-level semantic events and update operators. Flint's compiler handles the interaction logic and visual dependencies, which Microsoft says avoids many layout, rendering and debugging problems of custom interactive charts.
It supports clicking, filtering, zooming, highlighting and cross-chart interactions, and can link charts with text, tables and apps so an action in one view updates another, for interactive data stories and dashboards.
