01:31:37 Tom Trottier: "Write only" code 01:31:54 Tristan: Gemini I found is horrible for weird character switching in code. When doing any sort of code, I have found the combination of Visual Studio Code with it's GitHub Copilot to be quite good. Even better if pay a little for the Pro tier. If put your code in Git, you can also easily see everything the AI changes before you accept it. 01:34:28 Stew Bruce: Vote Early and Often! 01:34:56 Kal_Somo DPCUC: We have a sleeper that may not represent 01:35:14 Stew Bruce: Reacted to "We have a sleeper that may not represent" with 😀 01:35:18 David Odynski: came late missed first 2 no vote 01:36:45 Natalie: Interesting to hear about all of the challenges getting what you wanted from AI. 01:37:38 Natalie: And how you needed to check & test constantly. 01:39:09 Tom Trottier: Perplexity keeps your history and you can categorize it well. 01:41:05 Tristan: It can also be neat if you use a programming language that has a testing framework. Then AI can create code and create tests to validate/iterate its own work. 01:42:49 Deborah: which one would you recommend for non-programmers? 01:42:58 Kal_Somo DPCUC: All the presentations were excellent. It was hard to select. 01:43:01 Tom Trottier: Replying to "It can also be neat if you use a programming language that has a testing framework. Then AI can create code and create tests to validate/iterate its own work." Which? 01:43:07 E O'Driscoll: If the AI knows how to code, I wonder how it manages to leave a space out in the code. 01:43:43 E O'Driscoll: You would think that correct syntax would be a given. 01:44:26 Tom Trottier: AIs can be very careless 01:45:02 Tristan: All of the AI's can produce code. Though the various Claude models tend to do a better job. The main key is to be precise on defining what you are using (ex: Python 3.15) and what final result you want. Also tell it to check official documentation. 01:47:06 Tom Trottier: https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1715993 Automate the Boring Stuff With Python Practical Programming for Total Beginners 01:48:40 Deborah: Reacted to " https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1715993 Automate the Boring Stuff With Python Practical Programming for Total Beginners" with 👍 01:49:39 Tristan: Just the Gemini AI in Google Search is pretty helpful for anyone toying with Linux and stuck on some terminal syntax or settings. 01:50:25 Tom Trottier: Replying to "which one would you recommend for non-programmers?" Start with the free perplexity 01:52:01 Deborah: Replying to "which one would you recommend for non-programmers?" Thanks 01:52:38 Gail Eagen: Thank you! 01:53:22 Natalie: Thanks for sharing your experiences! 01:53:41 France Picard Ottawa: thank you guys for your presentatons 01:53:57 Harvey Hope: Good effort 01:53:57 E O'Driscoll: Thanks to everyone who made this contest possible! Lots of work obviously. Very interesting and I look forward to the slides. 01:54:03 Rosemary: Super interesting - Thanks to the presenters. 01:54:17 Deborah: Thank you this was great. . 01:54:30 Carol Pearson: Thanks all
