"Advisor Update #12: AWS Deep Dive, ChatGPT, and What Comes Next for AI Tooling"

Michael Pichardo December 1, 2022 Updated May 26, 2026

November was JavaScript fundamentals and AWS services. Then ChatGPT launched and everyone in tech started talking. Here's my early take on where the AI tooling wave is headed.

Hope this email finds you well!

November:

I spent the bulk of it practicing vanilla JavaScript and React tutorials to brush up on the skill set. These are the fundamentals that power the front-facing part of web applications.

I also learned (on a high level) the top AWS services and how you can stack them together. For instance, there is a software called Chime that can start an instant video call with anyone, and then you can use Rekognition to analyze a person's sentiment analysis, age, and more. Very useful for Telehealth applications.

The popular thing my tech friends are talking about is chat.openAi.com. This is basically a consumer version of GPT-3, an AI software that's been trained trillions of times with existing written information of the internet. It has bias, but works well.

The All-in podcast on Dec 4th said this will be a billion-dollar industry, especially if fine-tuned with proprietary data.

I see a future where developers start OpenAI powered no-code tools for industry specific use-cases. These future tools can help reduce staff overhead and administrative costs of companies, universities, or hospitals, to name a few.

Shoutout to Julio and Alex, who both hyped me up again about GPT-3.

Grateful for your support on the entrepreneurship journey. Until next time.
