​Weekly IT Roundup 🤠

PROUDLY MADE ON EARTH

Happy Friday, IT Professionals!

I’ve been playing with the new ChatGPT image gen model this week.

In fact, it made the newsletter logo above. Pretty crazy.

Auvik is still running their Pi Day promotion! If you’re an eligible customer, you can take a demo with Auvik and claim a free Raspberry Pi kit. Be sure to see the link for all the details 👇

Hope you have a great weekend and enjoy the news!

Yeehaw,
