Amplifying my thoughts before the big event

Lyrath BBQ

I wish I could have joined the BBQ crew in the Lyrath Estate tonight but I’m juggling a few things at home that take priority. One of those things involves following up on a few tasks Obsidian tells me to do.

I run a daily review of key teaching material I maintain. I teach a wide cross-section of AI courses and that material ages quickly.

A few months ago, I “scheduled” myself to present a pre-conference workshop in Lyrath. In preparation for that workshop, I wrote an outline inside my Obsidian vault. Claude reviewed my material for this imaginary course and told me to “capture observations from the session to feed directly into legacy training sessions about plugin deployment, connector setup, and no-code agentic tools.” I’m imaging what happened and following Claude’s advice.

In very polite terms, Claude identifies a “structural gap” whenever one of my training sessions has merely a skeletal outline with only headings and no body content. Claude spots placeholder, suggesting “a content review pass would be worthwhile”. The most recent review says I should “import the LLM Cost Calculator audit” to complement an existing Excel AI workflow.

On the first of August, Ireland’s AI Office becomes operational. Claude recommends elevating mention of this “most time-sensitive compliance signal” thoughout the next set of training sessions that I run.

I’m taking all these ideas from Claude’s review of my AI training materials with me, hoping to discuss the most recent Innovation Skillnet sessions with recent trainees.
