Laravel News Interview with Me about LLMs!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRG_eZJ0CnQ
One thing that came after the interview was a conversation with Eric and we found more then one way to help automate some of his more tedious daily tasks.
For example he gets numerous URLs sent to him daily that he has to verify are not spam. With just a little LLM prompting we can do the following.

Get the page from the url
See if the page is a valid technology article related to Laravel, PHP etc
If it is then mark the link as approved
if not mark the link as spam!
Of course it will take some prompt tweaking to get it right but in time as trust is built up he will no longer have to do this task.
