roughdata is a reality experienced by data anlysts, scientists, and engineers. To make our work work, we make assumptions before we get to the fun stuff. We are not perfect, and we’re not always right. But all analysis is iterative. We can always go back and fix things to make things better.
We can also have fun with other people’s models. I haven’t done much of creating generative AI models; however I’ve had a lot of fun with StableDiffusion and ChatGPT. I talk about ChatGPT making my life a bit easier on Mastodon.
ChatGPT by OpenAI fun
I don’t have a cat, but I certainly enjoy throwing pet related questions at ChatGPT. This is a sample of level of nonsense I’m willing to put out into the world. Not quite proud of this, but certainly it’s an index placeholder for the blog and about me pages.

ChatGPT delivers a convocation speech for the business school
Oddly, this one provided more personality than the presiding dean. But bless the University of Sheffield for plouging through 200 awards in an hour. Certainly faster, though the content wasn’t as interesting, as my experience with Open Unversity and now Dr. Ronan Keating on 16 May 2022.
