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. 

Legend Profile: Usain Bolt *According to Google Gemini

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: 


Beyond the Track:

  • Bolt retired in 2017, leaving an unmatched legacy in sprinting.
  • He has pursued various ventures, including endorsements, business interests, and even attempting professional football trials.
  • Bolt's charisma and dedication to the sport continue to inspire athletes and fans worldwide.

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."

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. ...

Zapier

As much as I have enjoyed using Keboola there are some connections that it doesn't have or that just haven't worked for one reason or another. I actually came across Zapier as a solution for bringing in e-mails from parkrun to load my results every week. 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...
