After a year of study I built a local assistant that runs my blog work

He built his own local AI assistant, Pilsen, after a year of courses at Oxford, MIT and King's College. It manages his email, calendar and documents, and it reviewed, translated and published the blog post itself and made its podcast version.

How it works

  1. Builds a local assistant over about 3 months of testing
  2. It manages his email, calendar, reminders and documents
  3. For each article it reviews, translates, publishes and promotes it
  4. It creates a podcast version and uploads it to his Spotify account

Why it’s worth knowing

The post explaining the assistant was itself reviewed, translated, published and turned into a podcast by that assistant.
