    Programming or scripting; usually Python would be enough to reduce the average repetitive workload of office workers by about 20%.

      Especially with ChatGPT you don’t really need to be that good at it, just good enough to read the script over and to know how to execute it.

            Also codeacademy or sololearn. Tons of alternatives too.

            The former is byte sized lessons followed by practice, the latter I’d explain as duolingo for coding.

            Python is also fairly straightforward comparatively. A lot of the key words make it read almost like sentences
