It turns out Google AI Studio (powered by Gemini) does a very decent job at this!! Here are steps and screenshots
Gen AI Labs in Ottawa was a great success. I even got to use my improv skills as I was asked to pivot and do something unplanned. The demo deities were kind that day.
The workshop was a success. Many people very happy with the content. They're even looking to plan another one.

There are differences between consumer and enterprise Gen AI. At the enterprise level, we still need a foundation of design, architecture and best practices to utilize generative AI as we would any other tool. Vertex AI is good for enterprises. cloud.google.com/generative-ai-…
🧹Nice and clean: Cloud Run default URLs are now deterministic: They simply use the name of the service, the GCP project number, and region. And if you don't want any default URL, we added --no-default-url. Old hash-based URLs still work, of course.
It takes a certain scale of infrastructure to do this, and we definitely know scale of infrastructure.
Historically, LLMs were significantly limited by the amount of text (or tokens) that could be passed to the model at one time. The Gemini 1.5 context window, with near-perfect retrieval (>99%), unlocks many new use cases and developer paradigms. Take a look ↓
