Hello Danny sure.. i currently have few 'standard' dataflows sourcing financial data from the internet and 'doing something about it'
i then got hooked on langchain, and thought about writing a simple Agent to fetching similar information, rather than me fetching the data and do somoe analysis the same data ( https://github.com/mmistroni/Magentic-AlgoTrading101/blob/main/six_step_dance.ipynb - WIP) Then i thought, why dont i have the Agent run on its own and 'do some work for me'..rather than a chat interaction or a notebook run.... so i thought why not put it on Dataflow - if it can be done - , run overnight and 'do things for me'. I can just pass a message at runtime as input to my job to invoke the Agent .. Simple usecases i can think of - status of Financial Markets - status of Transport network - grocery prices / petrol prices / supermarket prices - scan for holiday/ flights - weather forecasts or basically, any recurring task that i would do on daily/.weekly / monthly basis Mayb it's overkill...... but i am not a big fan of user interactions....
