- Configure a Windows Host for Ansible - Ansible winrm
- Using Date, Time, and Timestamp in Ansible Playbook - Ansible Tip and Tricks
- Change user password - Ansible module user

Recap
ChatGPT is a great companion that speeds up prototyping and boosts our productivity. I’m impressed by the quality of the result. They appear good-looking and well-organized. However, at the moment, the outcome requires some manual rework before being able actually to use in our laboratory. The challenges saw that it is excellent for minor problems but lacks for those requiring more context interpretation.
