In today's fast-paced digital world, staying on top of the latest industry insights can be a daunting task. As a fan of AMI VORA, a respected Product Manager and Product Lead at WhatsApp, I often find myself eager to digest his valuable knowledge shared on his Substack. However, with articles often exceeding a thousand words, I sought a way to streamline my learning process. That's when I discovered the power of no-code automation and ChatGPT.
By leveraging "Make," a user-friendly automation tool, I've created a seamless workflow that delivers concise article summaries straight to my Slack channel. Whenever Ami Vora publishes a new piece on his Substack, the automation magic begins. The RSS feed triggers the process, sending the article to ChatGPT, which skillfully condenses the content into six key points. The result? A bite-sized summary that captures the essence of the original article, making it easier than ever to stay informed.
Setting up this automation process is surprisingly simple, even for those without extensive technical expertise. With just a few essential components—an RSS feed or labeled newsletter emails, an OpenAI API token, and a Slack or Telegram API token—anyone can harness the power of AI-driven summaries. The best part? The cost is minimal, with my monthly expenses averaging just $1 using the OpenAI API.
While exploring automation tools, I discovered that "Make" offered a more cost-effective and customizable alternative to the popular "Zapier." Although Zapier boasts an intuitive UI and numerous app integrations, its limitations with ChatGPT and steep pricing for multi-step automations made "Make" the clear choice for my needs.
The potential applications for no-code automation and AI are vast, extending far beyond article summaries. From streamlining account verification processes to personalizing content delivery, the possibilities are endless. As engineers and tech enthusiasts, we have the power to unlock new efficiencies and enhance our daily lives through innovative automation solutions.
In conclusion, by combining the strengths of no-code automation tools like "Make" with the summarization capabilities of ChatGPT, we can revolutionize the way we consume and share information. As I continue to explore the exciting world of AI-powered automation, I encourage everyone to embrace these technologies and discover how they can simplify and enrich their personal and professional lives. Together, let's pave the way for a more efficient, informed, and connected future.
