I asked AI to estimate the sales of the top 40 for the 1997 UK Singles chart.

    But if it’s not even getting the chart POSITIONS right it isn’t much use.

Interesting but I guess it's just scraping data from BuzzJack and other sources like MusicWeek reports that are publicly available.

I'd be cautious though because there are inaccuracies in the above. e.g. Alice Deejay wasn't No.8 on Christmas week 1999, but No.11. And Flat Beat and Sweet Like Chocolate (to name a few) were definitely not still top 40.

Edit: in fact, on closer look, all of them are wrong. A Little Bit More in the 1998 chart hadn't yet been released, for example.

Oh, totally, same with anything to do with sales, even the Official Charts Company keeps changing things, but it's a good bit of fun to take a look.

I think that might depend on several factors. I've seen sites use different dates for each week, also if sales have been adjusted along the way etc... like GoodDelta said - it's pulling in from multiple sources. But it's still interesting to see what the collected data is pulling in.
