We have a new AI team at work to find ways we can use AI for our work.
I cannot think of a single thing for what we do (manage data center hardware). We don't confure it in any meaninful way that might maybe be useful.
Like we have these once a month logs we process, maybe that, but I already wrote and distributed an app (like ten years ago) that does that because its simple data processing X to Y. That already takes 5 minutes to do now.
5 minutes to analyse a month of logs?
Either that’s the most efficient log parser I’ve ever seen or you don’t log very much 😅
Its very specific data that its looking for, transmit and recieves for EAS, and where it came from.
If you're just looking for something specific, even command line tools can be hundreds of times faster than general data processing applications.
hyper-personalize what stock can go into DR or off bleeding edge based on known EOL dates and maintenance cycles from OEMs?.
EOL dates? LOL, we have servers that are like 15 years old now.
