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<https://notebooklm.google.com/> – bring together up-to 50 sources
and create your own LLM based on your own material.
* Demo
*
Creating useful table summarising the content
*
Summarising by content
*
Summarising/ group by themes
*
Automatic features - such as
*
Briefing Pack creation
*
Podcast creation (you have one chance at this per Notepad you create - but can prompt it
to direct more focused content on specific areas/ topics of interest)
Depending on the time we have then - If there is interest, then I can also demo something
on the following:
*
Claude<https://claude.ai/> – Artifact creation - will be easier to show you this
feature...
*
ChatGPT<https://chat.openai.com/> <https://chat.openai.com/> - New internet
searching capability - including applying sentiment analysis to news stories
*
ChatGPT<https://chat.openai.com/> <https://chat.openai.com/> - How to create a
PPT from a PDF (within 10 minutes)
*
There is also a tool called Napkin<https://www.napkin.ai/> that can generate power
point diagrams based on text you provide it...
*
ChatGPT<https://chat.openai.com/> – 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…

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<https://www.udio.com/> and
Suno<https://suno.com/> 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.
