I use Gemini (on my personal google account because my institution restricts its use on my institutional google account) or copilot (when I can get it to work) to write the framework of Analytics SQL formulas for me. I don’t know SQL, but I can edit existing ones, and 19 times out of 20 it gets me most of the way there. It’s a real time saver over having to trawl through stackoverflow threads.

Hi everyone,

 

I’m wondering how everyone is using AI in their work, or have any interesting tools they use. Here are a couple of my go-tos:

 

Goblin.tools : this is a really helpful tool for neurodivergent folks like me, and it has a lot of features including a “magic todo” list which helps to break down large tasks into smaller subtasks

NotebookLM : this tool is nice because you can upload documents and get summaries in various formats, including an AI-generated podcast(!)

 

I’d be interested in what other tools you use in your daily work life.

 

Thanks,

Julie
