You probs don't know it, but there is a #carpentries lesson in the incubator on AI-assisted coding (with Codeium).
Is it good?
No, because already outdated.
But it is actually better than you'd think. I left less skeptical than I came.

🚨 Important Updates for Self-Organised Workshops (SOWs) 🚨

We're making a few changes to support the sustainability of our Self-Organised Workshops!

1. Due to rising costs, AWS instances used in Data Carpentry Genomics workshops will now have a fee.
2. Updated SOW Definition & Submission Guidelines.

We understand that these changes are significant, and our goal is to continue sustainably providing support moving forward.

Full details can be found in today's blog post: https://carpentries.org/blog/2025/02/changes-to-self-organised-workshops/

As always, we are available for questions, concerns, and feedback. Please email [email protected].

Thank you for your continued support—your impact is invaluable!
