My Latest project using Gen AI

So recently parkrun removed all their stats and as a keen running who is trying to work their way up the top 100 of their local parkrun I wanted to get some of these stats back and have a bit of "fun" at the same time. So here is a little "ETL" process that I developed with the help of Gen AI.  The steps of my ETL:  Copy and paste data into Google Sheets template where an AI produced formula extracts URLS from the text and puts them into a new field. This effectively allows me to extract the parkrun athlete id, the primary key, and use it in my analysis. I also have a column to autofill the data I am processing.  Use an Gen AI generated Google Apps script to process it into a processed sheet, this allows me to build up a backlog of events (I had over 500 to process).  This is then queried using a Gen AI Google sheets query to extract key information and columns / format times etc. I then ingest the fully processed sheet into Keboola directly from Google Sheets. ...

Honestly I have not found it to be as robust as Keboola but that might just be me archiving my e-mails before it completes it 15 minute poll.  The second use case I am working on is the pulling in Strava data, for a fitness dashboard the fact it has a built in connector for Strava is great, though I am worried given the activities I do that I might reach the limit.  I won't go into details on how to set things up but you can setup 5 Zaps that can run for a combined 100 runs during a month for free.  In my data platform / solution I am using Zaps to load harder to get / automate data. It doesn't add much from a technical point of view as it is just signing into a few account to get the data into Google Sheets for downstr...
