My favourite part of my online master's in CS so far is using AI to help me study. This is a new experience for me because my previous degrees were before AI was useful to students. My best use cases so far are:

1) Research papers are not written for learners. AI writes an explainer, key vocabulary, and key findings that I read just before I read the paper.

2) Office hours recordings have low information density. AI transcribes and summarizes. Omit pleasantries, generic advice, and rambling student questions. Take special note of "this will be on the exam" etc.

3) Compression. AI generates chapter summaries that I read before exams, or use as open book references in exams.

4) Re-explain vague or poorly explained course content.

I may be having more fun with this than the master's program itself. Hmmm...

What are your favourite uses of AI to help get the most out of university courses?

🎓 Four years ago, I quietly completed Georgia Tech’s OMSCS (Masters in Computer Science) — 10 courses, 10 A’s, 4.0 GPA — while juggling a full-time job and multiple client projects.

I never posted about it. I just kept going.

Now, I’ve finally written the whole story:
💡 The lessons
🧠 The grind
🔥 The breakdowns
🙏 The growth

I never made my formal introduction, I should change that! I currently work in enterprise doing full-stack dev for #AEM in the financial sector. Mostly in #JavaScript, #Java, #HTML, and #CSS. Been a web developer for almost 15+ years. Finished my BSCS this past year, set to start Georgia Tech this year in the #OMSCS program.

Goals for 2023:
- Start transitioning away from web to #Swift / #Apple dev work
- Keep learning more Java related topics
- get through GT
