If you've actually been following this site for a while, you may have noticed that the weekly playlist posts have taken a bit of a turn over time. This is because for the last while I haven't actually been the one posting, it's been a workflow automation tool called N8n which generates the blank playlist for me every Monday, which I then spend the course of the week filling in. At the end of the week, every Friday, the N8n workflow then posts the playlist here and sends out a social media blast. In addition, recently I've been employing ChatGPT to construct a blog post instead of just using boilerplate text.

I know this might seem low-effort and lazy to some, but I only have so much time to devote to this blog, and while I can fully acknowledge the limitations and challenges that using a generative AI presents, I don't intend to keep it as a permanent collaborator for the site.

With that said, if you are a writer willing to donate a few minutes of their time, and you love music as much as I do, I'd be more than happy to welcome you to the project. Until that time, I welcome my new Robot Overlord Editor, ChatGPT.

NOTE: If you're at all interested in how I've automated the ChatGPT part of all of this, the code is available on my GitHub repo, and there's a publicly available Swagger-based API sandbox as well.
