This is the most personal episode I have ever recorded.
It's my near half-century journey to building an app. And how AI made it possible.
I'm a pre-beginner coder.
Yet eventually - and I mean, eventually, I somehow composed a working prototype of an application.
And I hope that I might inspire someone to give AI coding a shot. And learn the basics of coding - to get the most from this new, and hugely exciting, way to make things we love.
AI tools and models I've used for my working prototype:
Google's Gemini 1.5 Pro Various AI coding extensions for VS Code (Cline, Roo Code, Aider, and Continue) GitHub Copilot Pro using Anthropic's legendary Sonnet 3.5 model Perplexity Pro (with OpenAI o1) for research Deep Seek R1 (try it free) for mindblowing progress Lovable for visual inspiration based on my initial PRD.I almost gave up. Many times. I was literally and successfully prompting AI code editors to death.
But I don't enjoy giving up.
Find out what turned everything around.
And why you, too, should stay the course...

The last barrier to enterprise adoption of AI was memory. Baking into every prompt what the algorithm needed to know, was enough to send business leaders scurrying for the Luddite hills. But now Google (with Gemini and DeepMind's Mustafa Suleyman) and Microsoft are promising AI with memory. This will change so much about how we use AI - and make things so much more effective, and efficient. Let's get stuck in!

Imagine if you had massive balls - crystal ones - to accurately forecast future business needs.
That's one of the thousands of ways autonomous agents - popularised in organisations of all sizes through Microsoft Copilot Studio - can build better businesses.
These agents can send reports to your senior leadership team identifying inefficiencies or opportunities across the organisation. Then the HR squad can decide whether to upskill colleagues or hire in new ones. All before shit hits the fan!
Autonomous agents will change everything, Taste the future on today's episode of AI Today!

Retrieval augmented generation is how we used to chunk content in huge corpuses of data. Now there's a new sheriff in town - contextual retrieval preprocessing, or contextual RAG. No more relying on keywords; now we're talking hidden relationships between data, which means you can better respond to context inside queries.
This isn't just about finding information faster, it's about understanding the meaning behind it. Imagine your knowledge base becoming a mind-reader, anticipating needs and delivering precisely what's required, instantly.
We're talking about boosting agent productivity, empowering them to become knowledge ninjas, and transforming customer interactions into personalized experiences. Get ready to unlock growth by maximizing efficiency and creating a customer service dream team!

Let's take a look at how the latest version of Copilot can change the game for your business.
Imagine a manufacturing company developing a new electric vehicle (EV) charging station. This complex process involves multiple steps and teams, using various applications and datasets.
Market research: Copilot can analyse large datasets and generate visualisations to quickly identify key insights by analysing market trends using Excel with Python to forecast demand, pricing, and competitor analysis.
Design and engineering: Copilot can summarise key design discussions from Teams meetings and highlight potential issues, saving engineers time, and facilitating quicker decision-making, by tracking changes and feedback, and summarising discussions, while engineers collaborate on designs using OneDrive and SharePoint.
Sourcing: Copilot compares supplier bids and contracts using OneDrive, ensuring compliance with internal policies. AI surfaces discrepancies and highlights areas needing attention, streamlining negotiation and contract finalisation.
Prototyping and testing: Share test results and feedback across teams using SharePoint and Teams. Copilot can automatically generate reports summarising test data from various sources and identify key performance indicators, helping engineers iterate designs efficiently.
Marketing and sales: Create compelling marketing materials and sales presentations using PowerPoint and Copilot. Copilot can generate presentation drafts based on product specifications, market research, and competitor analysis, ensuring marketing messages are impactful and consistent.
Another major development is Copilot Agents - completing seemingly disconnected tasks forming a single activity.
In the EV charging station development process, a critical step involves collecting and analysing customer feedback during the pilot testing phase.
Traditionally, this process is manual and time-consuming:
Technicians gather feedback from pilot customers through surveys, emails, or phone calls.
This data is collated and manually entered into spreadsheets or databases.
Data analysts then process this information to identify trends, issues, and areas for improvement.
These insights are then shared with engineering, design, and marketing teams.
Copilot Agents can radically transform this process by automating these tasks and unlocking unimaginable possibilities:
Automated feedback collection: A Copilot Agent could be deployed to automatically gather feedback from pilot customers through various channels like in-app surveys, SMS messages, or even voice assistants. This agent could be trained to understand natural language and extract key insights from customer responses.
Real-time data analysis: As the agent collects feedback, it can use Excel with Python to perform real-time data analysis, identifying recurring issues, sentiment trends, and feature requests. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and processing, providing instant insights.
Proactive issue resolution: The agent could be programmed to automatically generate support tickets for reported issues, routing them to the appropriate teams for resolution. It could even suggest solutions based on previous support interactions or knowledge articles, significantly speeding up the resolution process.
Personalised communication: The agent can also be used to communicate with customers proactively, acknowledging their feedback, providing updates on issue resolution, and even offering personalised tips or recommendations based on their usage patterns.
By automating tasks, connecting data, and surfacing insights, Copilot reduces time to market and enhances the final product.

Forget everything you thought you knew about AI assistants. We're not talking simple chatbots that can barely string a sentence together. Claude 3.5 Sonnet, the latest iteration of Anthropic's groundbreaking language model, can actually use computers like a human. It can see the screen, move the mouse, click, type, and even navigate complex software. Think about that for a second. An AI that can control your computer. That can access the vast world of information online, manipulate data, and even write and execute code. It's a power we've only dreamed of, and it's here now.
