Pros

  • i prototype most of my prompts in n8n. I’ll get a workflow running, then dial in the prompt(s). ... then my n8n backs up everything to github every night.
  • but i’d suggest you bail on the basic b chat interfaces and step up to a workflow too like n8n. that’s where i keep my prompts, in purpose built workflows, often wired to my slack.
  • many use LLM’s to create prompts, and/or build them into purpose-built workflows using tools like make, zapier, and n8n
  • If you’re ever digging automation, tools like n8n can help cycle through these prompts with some logic for diversity!
  • Parent context: I haven’t used it yet, but from what I understand, n8n is great for chaining workflows and orchestrating multiple AIs, is that right? Reply: i couldn’t begin to describe how i’ve used it, it’s so versatile. it can handle...

Cons

  • Was thinking the same, would he have this in like an n8n flow or something
  • Likely to be smacked in the face with a constantly breaking n8n automation that fails 85% of the time.
  • I've explored n8n, relay, lindy, zapier... but haven't found good ROI use case yet.
  • These are the easiest ones to use so far - no heavy setup like n8n
  • Also some automation and ai agents like n8n , make etc

Reply: i couldn’t begin to describe how i’ve used it, it’s so versatile. it can handle your json, and once you get into it, you’ll realize the chat interface is like a skateboard with training wheels
