AI summary

Techniques for generating actionable recommendations to improve program performance using generative AI are disclosed. A system invokes an application programming interface (API) service to obtain a set of program attributes. The program is made up of multiple projects that share a strategic objective. The system determines an overall performance classification for the program and a set of key program metrics that influence the overall performance classification. The system generates a prompt using the key program metrics. The system provides the prompt to a generative AI model to generate a program summary and a set of actionable recommendations to improve program performance by improving one or more of the key program metrics.
