Friends by Data: Season 1, Episode 1

So I have loaded the scripts from every episode of Friends into a Snowflake database and I aim to analyse the words used and create a dashboard that anyone can have a play with by creating a roll up table with various statistics. For now that is a work in progress, so instead I am also going to use it in an episode by episode Friends trivia video series.

Using Gen AI to write Kids Books

I have been exploring the variety of options that are available with Gen AI. Not just the different AI tools but the differ things they can be used for. In my day job they can be great for rewriting bits of code or looking up how to do specific tasks in python but the data I work with means I could never ask for anything specific. I am still looking for an interesting home coding project to do but in the meantime I have gotten creative.  Working with my daughter I have started to create some books for kids. Probably best aimed at around the 6-10 year old mark, they are just fun books with a bit of a laugh in them. The great thing is that it is fairly easy to make the bulk of these books using GenAI which I have also used for cover art and for a bunch of logos and banners for a websites.  The Website is here and the first book is here  (only £0.99 from Amazon).  The writing process : Prompt 1 : I have idea xyz for a children's book aimed at 6-8 year olds, here is an guide blah blah
