Hi, I am not using it in my private life, but for work, I use it for speed up some automations scripts mainly. I had just tried about Dynatrace questions, but it is not correct, normally, and I still prefer documentation or this forum :dynaspin::cool_doge:🤑 ---

This is such a cool topic! I’m a Tony Stark fan since I was a kid, so control stuff with simple voice orders is the coolest think I recently focused to achieve. I bought an Alexa, but she’s limited because doesn’t really use AI to power her answers and actions. So, I found ways to provide “my own AI assistant” to work with her. I linked with Claude Sonnet 4 and something called TriggerCMD, so now when I need something “better” from her I make her ask to “Jarvis” and then she returns his answer or even actions. It’s so cool, but without this TriggerCMD Tool this should not work for now :sweat\_smile: ---

You know, I tried the same asking about Dynatrace and ChatGPT 5 can’t easily answer correct, so my workaround was to “Teach” him with the Dynatrace Docs, I just attached every doc link, so he could store on his “memory”, and then for my surprise the technical questions had a significantly result. But he still messing with innovating DQL logics, and I understand because sometimes is confused :rofl: ---

Because Dynatrace moves so fast, I really can’t get good answers from the AIs I use.. But it’s gotten way better. Some year ago, it was just allucinating all the time. Now it’s getting way better! ---

[@Michal\_Gebacki](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/44566) , this is an excellent and fascinating challenge! My history of hate about AI started in 1992 with Prolog. Couldn’t stand it! It got much better in my first Dynatrace Partner Summit, way back in 2016. At lunch, someone we all know, gave me one of the best replies in my life… The question: When will the Rise of the Machines happen? 4 years later, it became real when I met Davis in person at Perform! And than, in December 2022, all changed! I started making some non-professional questions to ChatGPT. And in early 2023, two events changed everything for me: 1. My first WOW moment was in late January 2023. It was a challenge from a client that had a very good algorithm for detecting when a disk would get full. I had discussed this extensively in a lot of places, namely [here](https://community.dynatrace.com/post/152939). On 25/01/2023, I finally got the spec of the algorithm from the client: 2. In April 2023 was developing a Dynatrace extension that involved parallelizing network requests at a very high pace. I was asking ChatGPT for the code (as I didn’t know how to parallelize code at the time in Python) but it wasn’t working as intended. I was seeing clearly it not working with tcpdump traffic. But ChatGPT was insisting the code was OK. I then asked: I have not looked back since then! ---

I use it mainly to get new inputs on problems I try to solve. e.g. once we had some parts in our selfmonitoring logs that looked like garbage displaying random characters, as if there was a memory issue on some devices. But as it somehow looked like it followed a pattern I asked langdock about it if those characters make sense, and surprise - it just were numbers in a format I did not know up until then (perso-arabic numerals). So problem solved an learned something new. ---

every time i ask MS co-pilot / Chatgpt to answer anything related to DQL related to metrics , it answers start with Fetch \ , now i have a DQL cheatsheet and attach to the conversation everytime i ask and also mention fetch will not work on metrics 🙂 it work very well for Dynatrace when we quote the doc and then ask solutions from it ---

AI has basically become my unofficial co-worker — the one that never sleeps, never complains, and somehow answers faster than anyone else. I use it for a bunch of things: - **Automated scripting:** Turning vague ideas like “I need a script that fixes my mess” into working Bash/Python/PowerShell/K8s YAML. - **Documentation & communication:** It helps me write messages that sound way more organized than what I could produce at 1 a.m. - **Prototyping & troubleshooting:** When I hit a wall, AI helps me validate logic, test approaches, and remember commands I definitely _should_ know. - **Personal life:** I also use AI to analyze patterns in stocks and cryptocurrencies. Nothing crazy — just identifying trends, risks, and behaviors. And honestly… it’s been working surprisingly well. Overall, AI helps me automate the boring stuff, avoid rework, and communicate clearly without overthinking everything. And yes - I know there are AIs that can already make coffee. But if we dream bigger… AI could help us solve problems that really matter: healthcare, education, climate resilience. If it can help clean up my scripts, maybe it can help clean up the world too. ---

MS Copilot is my best friend now… I understand programing language, of course, but aint not a developer. Before co-pilot, I spent hours in stackoverflow looking for pieces of codes to implement my automations, mostly using Dynatrace API for reporting and bulk configuration. Now, I just ask and got the py code done, quick and clean. In personal life, I am using to edit photos (years of photoshop training is now retired) and start thinking in use it to help me with my finance guidance (stocks analysis, what and when to buy). ---

I have a dietary restriction, and AI has been a huge help in managing it. It helped me create a personalized meal calendar with recipes I can cook either in a traditional way or using a Thermomix as an alternative. In the latter case, it even provides me with the exact programs I should use! This has made my daily cooking much easier and more enjoyable. ---

One of the first use cases I’ve used AI for is for writing DQL back when it was newly introduced and it was also one of the first lessons for me on not to trust everting AI says . It use to literally create functions and commands that never existed in DQL and too many hallucinations.😄 But once I started understanding DQL and writing my own queries  , I’ve been using AI to improve the query performance. It does provide good suggestions based on DQL best practices in improving the query performance and smarter ways of formatting the query. Its been a good leaning experience , but with a bit of caution ---

I’ve been experimenting with using AI to make my workflow smoother and more organized. Using Ollama together with an Anthropic model, I built a small local knowledge base that I can query with natural, human-language prompts. I fed the system with my own documentation, notes, and references, and now it returns accurate, context-aware answers whenever I need them. The idea is to test if this would be a possible solution for everyday questions that I get from colleagues, but founding the answers based on company-specific data and not the publicly accessible ones. Curently I am testing it on a local ProxMox homelab and it lacks resources, so it’s terribly slow but I think it might be something worth playing with. ---

I using ChatGPT to help me manage my homelab which is built with Proxmox. I’m running bunch of LXC containers and VMs together with an external NAS for storage. I’m not really experience in Linux that’s where ChatGPT is helping me out a lot (troubleshooting, analysing logs…).. very handy for me to get prebuilt linux commands that just need to be executed. I’ve also used it to help me plan our family vaction last summer (roadtrip with kids). I almost felt like cheating.. instead of endless hours of googling for suitable accomodations and activities it provided a tour within a few minutes. Another usecase is product research / comparision. Whenever I’m about to buy something important I’m using it to provide in depth analysis and compare the different options. Where it really helps me is getting started with something. When there is new challenge / task ahead and I don’t know how to approach it AI is helping to get over that initial mental block fast. It’s a kickstart tool for me. ---

Except for the constant addition of LLM results when using Google, my main usage is to create quick scaffolding for a script. When generating too much code it takes almost as long to understand (and fix) what it did, as it would have taken to create it myself, but it’s great with creating the basic code to then build upon. ---
