My current project is building a search engine for our local intranet server.  I also made a gasket nesting tool for circles and hexagon shapes for nesting on rotary presses and vertical presses.  My boss is building a custom CRM system so we can get away from Apptivo.  I also made a mail labeler for my personal use for samples I mail out to our customers, and a Request For Quote ticket system for our Sales Team.  The search engine project has been rough...very steep learning curve for me.  But not very long ago, none of these things would have been possible for me to do.

So this is the world we are entering: malicious actors using AI to defraud, scam, steal, and destroy, but on a scale far greater than anything we've seen before.  It's rather dystopian.
