My GPTs and me

As the bullet train called Generative AI moves along we can only stop and marvel at its progress for a short while. That is, until the next big announcement hits us in the face, right? I think it’s a good idea to “niche down” and not look at everything the GenAI ecosystem has to offer. It’s time to only look at the thing that interests you the most, and find the GPT / AI companions that can assist you with that.

For me, I want to help the PMO succeed with Microsoft Technology. This has led me to create a couple of ChatGPT models. Let me introduce them.

Note: I’ve been away for a bit because I was moving the family to our new house. Seems these GPT models are now available and free for everyone to use, and that you only need to log in. Please let me know if I misread that message.

Yes, Oh Yes! That is definitely me!

First week of Microsoft 365 Copilot

In my mind, this year so far is in 6th gear! In March ChatGPT was the fastest growing “thing” ever, then just a few months later Microsoft acquired the company behind it (OpenAI) and at the beginning of this month (November 2023) Microsoft released its flagship AI solution Microsoft 365 Copilot. What do we know about this Copilot, and are people using it to their benefit?

It’s a total miss this week with the image. But I did want to share it, as I have experienced a couple of big hallucinations lately that didn’t fit at all, more on that later.

Generative AI and the Azure blob storage (part 3)

This article is a continuation of my series of articles on how to be sure to protect your data, and leverage the generative AI capabilities. This article focuses on the Azure blob storage component. Oh, we now have DALL E3 using Bing, so expect some better (cooler) images from now on!

Generative AI, PMOs and protecting your data (part 1)

Hi there! Welcome to this almost weekly post on AI and the PMO. Almost, because frequent visitors might have missed last week’s post. As you might know, I’m moving to the other part of the country, so there are some personal matters to consider.
