As part of generating video courses, I’m back working on my udemy courses. A common piece of feedback is to add more examples. Easy peasy, I can ask chatgpt to do that and verify the quality. Right? Well…not if GUIs will stop me.

One quiz question involves….11 boxes. 11.

So if I want 10 questions, that’s 100+ boxes that a human has to click into. Which takes time. Eventually I could make a udemy plugin in chrome (or a chatgpt plugin) to do this but then I need to invent a new schema for udemy courses…which makes it hard for others to use.

Instead, udemy should have an API or text representation of the course, then we could programmatically and therefore quickly easily plumb data from chatgpt to udemy.
