Olympics Series - Mens 100M - According to Gemini

 Here I am going to try and work on a project to use GenAI to create some content for the upcoming Olympics. I am hoping to integrate some data project as well, exactly what that will be remains to be seen. 

So the Mens 100M. My preview will cover a bit on a legend of the event, who cannot be repeated in another event and then a preview of the event for the upcoming games.

Usain Bolt: The Lightning Bolt Leaves a Legacy

Usain Bolt, the retired Jamaican sprinter, isn't just a legend in track and field, he's widely considered the greatest sprinter of all time. Here's a glimpse into his phenomenal career:

Early Life and Transition to Track:

  • Born in Sherwood Content, Jamaica on August 21, 1986.
  • Initially excelled in cricket and football, but his exceptional speed was undeniable.
  • Encouraged by his school coach to pursue athletics, he began training seriously in his teens.

Dominating Rise to Stardom:

  • Established himself as a prodigy by winning the 2002 World Junior Championships.
  • By 2007, he became the fastest man alive, setting his first 100m world record.
  • The 2008 Beijing Olympics marked his global explosion. He shattered world records in the 100m, 200m, and as part of the 4x100m relay team – all in record times.

Solidifying the Legend:

  • Bolt achieved the unprecedented feat of "triple-doubles" at three consecutive Olympics (2008, 2012, 2016), winning gold in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m relay at each.
  • His flamboyant personality and signature lightning bolt pose made him a global icon.
  • Throughout his career, he collected numerous accolades, including eight Olympic gold medals, eleven World Championship gold medals, and multiple Laureus World Sportsman of the Year awards.
And according to Ideogram.ai this is an image create in the likeness of Usain Bolt:

His impact goes beyond the times he clocked. Usain Bolt redefined sprinting, captivating audiences with his speed and showmanship. He remains a true legend in the world of athletics.

Gemini Race Preview

"The 2024 Olympics are coming up in Paris, and the men's 100m is shaping up to be an exciting race! Here are some of the top contenders:

  • Fred Kerley (USA): The reigning World Champion (as of August 2023) and a sub-10 second runner.
  • Marcell Jacobs (Italy): The surprise winner of the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, though injuries have hampered him recently.
  • Noah Lyles (USA): A talented young sprinter known for his showmanship, and the reigning World Champion in the 200m.
  • Ferdinand Omanyala (Kenya): A rising star who pushed Lyles in the 2023 World Championships.
  • Christian Coleman (USA): A former World Champion with a personal best that puts him in contention, but has faced doping suspensions.
  • Zharnel Hughes (Great Britain): A favourite of Usain Bolt, known for his strong starts.

These are just a few of the athletes to watch. It's always possible for someone unexpected to challenge for the gold medal too! Keep an eye out for the qualifying races and other major competitions leading up to Paris 2024.

For a fun guess, based purely on randomness and with no insider knowledge, I'll say the winner will be... Ferdinand Omanyala (Kenya).

Remember, this is just a random pick! The beauty of the 100m is that any of these top contenders could pull off a win on the day."

AWS training cloud academy free course

One of the things I like about this course are the instructors are really clear but also that it provides free labs that allow you to actually sign into AWS and perform some actions to actually create and do things without worrying that you are going to incur a cost.  Today I complete one of the hands on labs.  This was to create a lambda function, in this case it was a very basic python script that was searching a website for a keyword. I then placed this into a schedule and used cloudwatch to create a dashboard that monitored the running of this function. Overall it was a very simple use case but it was also a very simple process to setup.  I don't have much to add to this other than it is well worth signing up to cloud academy for the free training if nothing else, I am tempted, once i have done some more training, to give the paid for option a go to get the full sandboxes.

dbt - more stuff

The more I used dbt the more I like it. I am finding many of its features really useful and I haven't even done the training on macros and packages yet so I feel there is more to come yet. In the meantime I have now start to, just of the fun of it, create some downstream views with dependencies on other steps and a function in SQL. Happy to say it is all working really well and using jinja (and my Snowflake function ) has saved me heap of time coding.  Sources yml:  View using the source function (results in SQL) View that references the output from previous steps, allows them to be linked:  Assuming you create your sources in the yml file and reference previous steps using the reference function rather than calling the resulting table (dbt handles that for you) (as shown above) it will automatically work out the dependencies, run things in the right order and produces a lovely lineage graph like so.  I am hoping to stop playing with what I know of dbt and might make...
