- [April 2024]
- 📚 Released the Repository Template for Course Websites, a tool for educators to easily create and manage course sites using GitHub Pages, powered by GitHub Actions and Material for MkDocs. I realized I was repeating this process every time I created a course, so why not automate it a bit?
- 🚀 Launched a GitHub project to scrape RSS feeds into daily json files, driven by the need for a quick dataset to grasp "what's happening in the country." Automated with GitHub Actions, it runs every 24 hours. This is part of a larger project—stay tuned.
- [February 2024] 💡 I'm currently working with Subconscious.ai to help build an AI Copilot for Causal Market Research. It's my first time working with Langchain's LCEL, and I've managed to shift the whole query process for LLMs into this new framework.
- [January 2024] 🌌 I recently taught an intensive data science workshop titled "Orbiting Jupiter and Landing on Earth: A Journey in GitHub Towards Practical and Collaborative Data Science". This course focused on transforming the way students approach data science, shifting from solitary projects in Jupyter Notebook to a more collaborative and practical approach, ready for integration into real software environments.
- [December 2023] 📖 Co-created the AI engine for the "Explorador Constitucional" a joint project by La Tercera (one of Chile's largest newspapers) and CRiSSLab. Deployed an OpenAI API-based product in production, which efficiently searches, summarizes, and compares constitutional texts. The site attracted over 5,000 users per day. The first version of the code is here.
