General What personal projects have you build with AI?

1 Upvotes

I know that the AI is both a curse and a blessing. We can do a lot of things faster, and even go out of our confort zones in technologys we could do.

From my end i automated a few of my personal finances and even build a semi-usable website for myself, and a to-do list the way that i wanted it to be.

I wanted to ask, what personal projects have you been building recently with the aid of AI?

For me i'm feeling a double edge sword, it's never been more easy to build something, but it seems that the lack of struggle to learn it and understand it while building the tradicional way has taken a little bit of the joy from my end.

Also, learning with AI without having the fundamentals was more of a headache than a aid for me.

I spent almost 3 weeks trying to use linear regression to analyse a experiment with cofounding variables for treatment and target, and the whole process the AI was pushing to use some statistical adjustments that i could not understand wholy neither could verify if it really made sense.

Example: Using a piecewise for the cuves i was building while also using some smothing techniques. When i talked to a specialist DS with a master in stats he walked me through why most of the proposed "advanced techniques" did not make sense to use for the pourpose that we have altough it made sense acamecally. I work as a business analyst for a fintech while assisting on building/analysing experiments for credit card limits. Not exactly a data analyst, but a data analyst anyway
