I used the tips and tricks from @JeremyCoppey during his session “Me and AI” to generate a recap post using ChatGPT. It wasn’t able to generate this based on tweets/X’s nor our website as it wasn’t trained with this data. Nevertheless, it was able to provide me something based on the name of the event, 8-bit theme, location and list of sessions as json file (which is being used behind the website).

Here you go:
