Part of my goal on this blog is to pit the different AI tools against each other. Being a data guy this will mostly come from python and SQL scripting, and perhaps data analysis if I can get it to do that. However I am also going to see how they compare with creativity. In the long term it would be cool to make some books using them and see how they turn out. Maybe a kids book and a super hero book.

From there I decided to create a blog for each of the Gen AI tools and to get them to create and blog about this fictional world and post these stories onto my YouTube channel. Will be interesting to see how the stories develop and if any of them get any view haha.
Really finding Keboola was the thing that kickstarted this project otherwise I would be trying to build custom code on a python cloud server and building everything from scratch. In Keboola you build you data sources and destinations using connection details which is fairly simple and something I will likely cover in another post, same goes for transformations etc. Here though I am going to discuss Flows, this is where you bring everything together. On my free account there are some limitations. My easiest flow is very basic: Pull parkrun results e-mail from Gmail to Google Sheets (actually done by Zap not Keboola). Keboola will, as often as I like, in this case once a week, pull the data from the sheet into its storage. It will then transfer this to the target database. Currently I have this setup to be MySQL database but I can and might expand that to the Snowflake instance within Keboola. I then, outside of Keboola, connect to the MySQL database f...
