Hello Folks,
This session emerged from a recent discussion about AI with Till and Jayne. I've been incorporating AI tools into my work for approximately two years, primarily to summarise huge policy documents and develop targeted content for firm supervisors. These materials
help supervisors digest complex policy documents and formulate focused questions for their firm interactions. Supervisory roles are particularly demanding as requires comprehensive knowledge across multiple domains, including business models, governance structures,
and organisational culture—specifically addressing leadership, diversity, purpose, values, and psychological safety.
I know folk in our group have talked about using Elicit to better search for relevant research and ChatGPT to help with data coding - so I'm guessing many on the call will know a lot more than me about certain aspects of these tools. Propose to demo the following
during the call - if there is demand then maybe we can set up a regular AI knowledge sharing forum - I've initiated one at the FCA which I'm starting in January after the Christmas holidays.
Demos around the following? Should take about 15 minutes...
-
NotebookLM –
bring together up-to 50 sources and create your own LLM based on your own material.
Depending on the time we have then - If there is interest, then I can also demo something on the following:
-
Claude –
Artifact creation - will be easier to show you this feature...
-
ChatGPT -
New internet searching capability - including applying sentiment analysis to news stories
-
ChatGPT -
How to create a PPT from a PDF (within 10 minutes)
-
There is also a tool called
Napkin that
can generate power point diagrams based on text you provide it...
-
ChatGPT –
Analytics - I have downloaded a simple data set from Kaggle so can demo how ChatGPT can be used to interrogate and manipulate the CSV file.
Example of an artifact created in Claude – prompt engineering cheatsheet - I fed it some image files from LinkedIN and asked it to produce me a nice prompt engineering cheatsheet - got the following output after a few prompt iterations…
S
PS There are so many tools out there that there is a danger of going down severe time-wasting rabbit holes so I'm trying to stick to a couple of AI tools - overtime the bigger ones like Claude and ChatGPT appear to be stealing the niche functionality from many
of the others. There is also
Udio and
Suno that
can generate unique songs based on any style or combination of styles and subjects you ask...
PPS You can link into the free version of these tools using your google accounts.
