- can I paste a 500-row inventory export into an AI chat?can I paste a 500-row inventory export into an AI chat?how large a CSV fits in context?
- Yes, easily. A 500-row, ten-column package export with a Metrc tag on every row is roughly 25 to 30 thousand word-chunks, and it fits in any current chat with room to spare. Keep the header row, cut the columns the question does not need, and take the customer names out first. Past a few thousand rows, upload the file or ask for a script instead.Yes, easily.

Past a few thousand rows, upload the file or ask for a script instead.A 500-row, 10-column export with tags runs about 25 to 30K tokens, comfortably inside current context windows; tags and numbers tokenize denser than prose, so a Metrc export costs roughly twice what the same volume of text would. Keep the header, drop unneeded columns, redact PII, and keep tags as text so a spreadsheet does not turn them into scientific notation. Beyond that scale, give the model a tool and let the runtime hold the data.
- why does AI get the total wrong on my export?why does AI get the total wrong on my export?why is model-computed aggregation unreliable?
- It reads numbers as chunks of text, not digits, so it lands close rather than exact, and close is worse than wrong because nobody checks a close number. For anything numeric past about twenty rows, ask for the formula instead of the answer: write the formula that sums quantity where status is Active. Paste that into your sheet and the number comes from the sheet.It reads numbers as chunks of text, not digits, so it lands close rather than exact, and close is worse than wrong because nobody checks a close number.

Paste that into your sheet and the number comes from the sheet.There is no arithmetic unit and no second pass over the rows, so a long sum fails silently: no error, no flag, just a number that is off. Have the model emit the expression instead, a SUMIFS, a pandas groupby or the equivalent SQL, and let the runtime compute it. Code is checkable and reproducible; a summarized number is neither.
