I’ve been running a podcast for close to half a decade now, called The Work Item. Publishing new episodes generally takes a bit of time because of all the prep work that needs to happen beforehand. I now get to use AI to automate a pretty tedious part of the process.

If you are a software engineer, product manager, data scientist, or in any other role that deals with technology and you are not using Large Language Models, you are missing out on some key productivity boosters. Consider this anecdata, but what I managed to accomplish with my podcast website, arguably a relatively simple project, is a bellwether for things to come across the industry.

I am always on the lookout for ways to make my life easier with the help of computers, and one of the more recent things that I started using is really helping me in this domain - the @vision extension for GitHub Copilot.

A little experiment in using GitHub Copilot REST APIs inside GitHub Actions to avoid manually parsing text bodies.

What’s a start to the year without some changes. Well, at least for me and my family the change meant a switch of teams and organizations within Microsoft.
