## Tutorial

The tutorial is driven by the AI chatbot. It guides you through an example use case involving the Titanic dataset (a classic machine-learning demo) and walks you through adding data to context, running queries, creating visualisations and dashboards, and building machine-learning pipelines.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Start the tutorial">
    On first login, select ‘Meet your AI data analyst’. Alternatively, click ‘Start tutorial conversation’ from the home page.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the Titanic dataset to context">
    Use the + icon above the chat box to add the Titanic dataset to the chat context.

    <img alt="Add dataset to chat context" src="https://mintcdn.com/truestate/GF4r73UOGeRL5z6C/images/getting_started/quickstart/add_context.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=GF4r73UOGeRL5z6C&q=85&s=38d1dfc6f7dd5ef17e311230ead7e21f" width="1999" height="1125" data-path="images/getting_started/quickstart/add_context.png" />
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review the first query results">
    The chatbot executes a query showing survival rates across passenger groups. Click the ‘Query executed’ card to expand and view details.

    <img alt="Expand the tool result for more detail" src="https://mintcdn.com/truestate/GF4r73UOGeRL5z6C/images/getting_started/quickstart/execute_query_2.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=GF4r73UOGeRL5z6C&q=85&s=116dbbe68c082110ffd5782650362f9e" width="1999" height="1125" data-path="images/getting_started/quickstart/execute_query_2.png" />
  </Step>

  <Step title="Inspect the survival rate chart">
    Continue and the bot will present a survival rate chart. Click the result to expand and see the figure.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Build a dashboard from the results">
    The bot offers to create a dashboard of survival rates. Continue to the dashboard to explore an interactive presentation of the data.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a pipeline">
    Finally, accept the bot’s offer to create a pipeline, then proceed to the Pipelines page to see how a pipeline works.

  </Step>
</Steps>

You’ve now completed the tutorial and seen a brief overview of TrueState’s functionality. For deeper dives, ask the bot for details on any feature, or continue with the guides in the sidebar.
