Very interesting—thanks for the invite! I'm a data analyst and paid media advertiser, working remotely for a small marketing agency. I wear many hats and I'm using AI more and more every day, for research, coding, editing, and image generation. I'd like to learn how to build out more sophisticated use cases, such as custom chatbots and data warehouses. I'd like to make automating my job my main job!

Happy Friday! We had a great coffee chat this morning, thanks to everyone that joined in. Here are a few things to check out based on the conversation that came up (my AI notetaker didn't show up so I'm doing this from memory, @Michael MacMillan you may be able to add more!): -Use Google Takeout to download your Google data (great for tourism operators that receive Google reviews): https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/3024190?hl=en -OneNote as a tool to organize all your information (not AI related, but I imagine CoPilot will do a better job being able to search and pull information from OneNote in the future): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfF7pHVJPRI (this is a video I created 5 years ago with over 100k views). -Progressive Summarization as a note-taking technique: https://fortelabs.com/blog/progressive-summarization-a-practical-technique-for-designing-discoverable-notes/ -Lighthouse Labs for funding to hire a developer that can help in many areas of AI, especially building AI automated workflows: https://enterprise.lighthouselabs.ca/wage-subsidies/ -LangChain for building AI Agents (technical expertise needed): https://www.langchain.com/ -12 Days of OpenAI: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/10271060-12-days-of-openai-release-updates For others that were in the meeting, let me know if I've missed anything!

Hi everyone, We had a good showing for the coffee this morning and an even better discussion. Thanks @Curtis Cartmill for sharing your screen and walking through ChatGPT Canvas and Whimsical. For the others, here are some links that were shared during the conversation: RAII Funding from ACOA: https://www.canada.ca/en/atlantic-canada-opportunities/services/regional-artificial-intelligence-initiative.html More details about RAII funding specific to Ontario (but is similar for Atlantic Canada): https://feddev-ontario.canada.ca/en/funding-southern-ontario/regional-artificial-intelligence-initiative-southern-ontario WIPSI Funding: https://novascotia.ca/programs/workplace-innovation-productivity-skills-incentive/WIPSI-Guidelines.pdf Website to build fully-functional tools with no code: https://bolt.new/ We also chatted about Matt Wolfe on YouTube, BotSheets to help prototype using chatbots that can read and report on spreadsheets, and downloading the new ChatGPT desktop app for Windows. Lots more will be added in the coming days/weeks so stay tuned!

Howdy everyone, I'm Mike, one of the SMEs from the STFX and DNS micro-credential. I run an SEO Consultancy and have been using Gen AI for almost two years in my business's daily operations. I am also teaching an in-person workshop for Tourism Operators in both Cape Breton (on Thursday this week, sold out) and in January for the Valley Ren (sign up at https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/ai-for-daily-tourism-operations-tickets-1097318431969?aff=oddtdtcreator) I am learning something new about Gen AI every day, and today, I discovered how to download Google My Business reviews from https://takeout.google.com/?pli=1. I can then feed this information into Claude or ChatGPT to learn more about my reviewers' sentiments. I am excited to be here, and thanks for having me @Robert Newcombe .

Thanks Robert for inviting me into this community. I work with Goodlife Fitness and my passions include Digital Transformation, Marketing Strategy, Branding, Digital Marketing and of course, integration of AI into all of this. Looking forward to new insights with this amazing group!
