  Grok Bot shipped this month and you can run an entire outbound desk inside it. Here's the full build: 1) Create one bot first and make it the coordinator. Give it a title, pin it to the top, and don't give it any work. Its only job is knowing which bot owns what. 2) Brain dump your whole motion into it. Your ICP, offer, channels, stack, what you want off your plate. Then reverse prompt it: Ask how it would structure the desk based on what it now knows. It writes the bots itself. 3) Build 6 bots, one job each: > list builder, owns TAM sourcing & segmentation > enrichment, runs the waterfall & scores accounts > copywriter, writes variants per segment > deliverability, watches bounce rates & inbox health daily > replies, scores intent & drafts responses > coordinator, reads all five and hands you one list 4) Give them real names. Sounds pointless. You delegate noticeably more when the sidebar reads like a team instead of a list of functions. 5) Install the plugin layer. Gmail, Calendar, X, and Agent Mail. Agent Mail gives every bot its own inbox and address in about ten seconds. 6) Never hand a bot your credentials. Each one gets its own email, then you invite it into your tools like a contractor. Moderator, not admin. Scoped to one workspace. 7) Put them on routines. Deliverability runs every morning before sending starts. Replies runs continuously. Coordinator runs once at the end of the day. 8) Every stop condition has to be checkable by something other than the bot. "Bounce rate pulled from the sequencer" works. "The bot says it ran" does not, and this is where swarms fail silently. The reason this beats one big agent: A single agent's description has to cover every job you own, and that whole thing gets read on every request. Split by role and you split the context with it. The deliverability bot answers fast because it isn't reading about your copy first. Week one output is mediocre. You fix it by messaging the specific bot that produced the weak brief and telling it what was wrong. Then it rewrites its own instructions. Most of the setup is deciding who owns what. The prompts literally take an evening.

  Wiring the payment layer to the token makes sense for demand, but a custodial internal wallet tied to Gmail login puts you on the hook for balances and account recovery. A non custodial deposit with a credit ledger gets the same UX without holding user funds.

  BREAKING: Arga Labs raised $10M to stop teams testing AI agents in production General Catalyst led, with Y Combinator, BoxGroup, Emergence, Gradient and SV Angel joining The problem is obvious once you see it: agents already work inside Slack, Gmail and Salesforce, and most teams have no way to test them except on live systems Arga builds digital twins of that software @PhillipLii and @akkkkiira met in first-year calculus at 17 and 14, since Akira skipped high school.

  ChatGPT just expanded automation with website logins and app triggers today. Here's what you need to know. ChatGPT Work can now sign into password-protected websites on web and mobile, without OpenAI ever seeing your username or password. You can ask it to set up utilities for a new apartment, book a DMV or passport appointment, or check a reimbursement, basically anything you'd normally click through a browser yourself. OpenAI says the earlier version of this required a manual takeover step, where you logged in yourself inside a virtual browser and screenshots were disabled during that window. The new rollout brings direct sign-in support to both the web and cloud browser, still without exposing credentials to the model. Scheduled tasks also got an upgrade. Plus and Pro users can now set tasks to trigger off events in Slack, Gmail, and GitHub, like a new email or a pull request update, instead of only running on a fixed schedule. Free users are getting scheduled tasks for the first time too, capped at three tasks each. Users can also now share their favorite tasks for others to customize and use. Key numbers: - Free users: up to 3 scheduled tasks - Plus and Pro: event-triggered tasks on Slack, Gmail, GitHub - Login feature: rolling out today for Plus, Pro, and Business on web and mobile Both features are live now, and OpenAI says credentials are never seen or stored by ChatGPT.

  @GaddipatiHarsha @ksw_arman Honestly a ton of it comes down to efficiency. Gmail is processing billions of emails per day, and at that scale you can’t just throw an expensive LLM call at every email (not to mention the hundreds of other things the servers have to detect, e.g. spam). Even if something costs a fraction of a cent per email, the compute + cost would be nuts But the move for email clients/startups just gotta be to do things that dont scale until that becomes an issue The other big difference is gmail has to cater to 5 year olds learning how to read, startup bros, retired seniors, and everything in between. Making a feature intuitive for basically every person imaginable is hard

  @gremlin_sh @poiThePoi Like I said it's impressive. But let's also keep in mind this is twitter not big tech. If the hell-site goes down and I can't tweet at you freaks I'll be sad, but it would be a very different discussion if say Gmail or AWS had similar outage patterns. The ad revenue drop is also significant, and let's not forget the interest on the $13B Elon needed to fund the acquisition. Would be surprised if they broke even with the staff reductions.

  Google Has the Best AI Distribution — and That Might Be Its Biggest Cost Problem One sentence: Google is creating AI demand by embedding Gemini into 13 products with 1B+ users—but every AI feature multiplied across billions of users becomes a massive recurring compute liability. Consensus: Google is spending aggressively on AI because it has to keep up. The narrative is simple: Big Tech is in an AI arms race, and Google can't afford to lose. Cloud is growing, Gemini is improving, capex is climbing, and FCF has gone negative. Contradiction: But Google's AI demand is not the same as OpenAI's or Anthropic's. Most AI companies build models and hope users come. Google already has 2.5B monthly users on AI Overviews alone. It doesn't need users to choose Gemini—it just needs to turn on AI features inside Search, Gmail, YouTube, and Workspace. That means Google is manufacturing a huge portion of its own AI demand through product design and distribution. Mechanism: Google's economic model is a feedback loop. Embed AI into products with billions of users. Usage increases because AI is now the default, not an optional tool. Compute demand rises—every AI-generated summary or suggestion consumes inference. Capex expands to keep up with the demand. That capex becomes evidence that "AI demand is exploding." The demand is real. But part of it is endogenous—it exists because Google decided to create it, not because users chose it. Evidence: AI Overviews: 2.5B monthly users. AI Mode: 1B+ monthly users. Gemini integrated across 13 products with 1B+ users, including 5 products with 3B+ users. Google Cloud revenue: +82% YoY in Q2 2026. Cloud backlog: $514B. Alphabet FCF: negative as infrastructure investment accelerates. Economic consequence: This scale creates a hidden trade-off. Every incremental AI feature multiplied across billions of users is a recurring compute expense. Google has been optimizing per-query cost aggressively—and that matters enormously because even small savings scale into billions. But the open question remains: does each AI interaction generate enough incremental revenue to justify the compute behind it? Profit pool migration: Primary beneficiary: Google (GOOGL) . $514B cloud backlog shows external demand is real. The company is raising debt to fund infrastructure. If AI Overviews increase Search engagement and ad monetization faster than inference costs rise, the ROI is massive. Challenged: Standalone AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic). Google's distribution advantage is unmatched—it doesn't need to win the "which model is best" debate to get inference workload. It just needs to keep embedding. Public equity implications: The market is pricing Google's AI capex as a "catch-up" spend. But the capex is also funding the transformation of Google itself into an AI-native ecosystem. Analysts are still calibrating the revenue lift from AI-enhanced products. The gap between "capex is a cost" and "capex is infrastructure for a higher-margin future" is the valuation debate. Risks and invalidation: Monetization gap: If AI features increase engagement but not ad pricing/subscriptions, the inference liability becomes a margin drag. Open-source erosion: If competitors offer similar AI capabilities for free, Google's distribution advantage shrinks. Regulatory pressure: Google's ability to default users into AI features may attract antitrust attention. Cost curve: If inference cost reductions don't keep pace with usage growth, the math breaks. Bottom line: Google is not just responding to AI demand—it is actively creating it. That is a superpower. But it is also a self-inflicted cost obligation. The stock ultimately depends on whether Google can turn billions of AI-powered interactions into billions of dollars of incremental profit faster than the compute bill arrives.

  ChatGPT just crossed a line most people will miss It can log into websites, It can run tasks when Gmail, Slack, or GitHub changes. Free users now get scheduled tasks. This is the first time ChatGPT looks like a coworker, not a chat box. The old version always died at the login screen. You asked it to book something or pull an invoice. It stalled. You took over. Now it shows the login form. You enter the password. OpenAI says that data never hits the model. Then it keeps going. It still asks before payments or bookings. That’s the difference between a demo and a tool. The second change matters more for daily work. Paid users can trigger a task off an event, not a clock. Eg: New Gmail from a client - draft a reply and flag anything that needs money or a date Slack message in support - summarize and suggest the next step GitHub PR review - post a plain-English recap, Connect the app once. Write the rule once. Let it run. Do this today. Don’t overbuild. Free plan: set 3 timed tasks. Morning briefing of your unread important emails End-of-day recap of what moved weekly what did I promise people? scan Plus/Pro: add one event trigger. Start with Gmail. One sender or one subject line. One action. If a task can spend money, ship code, or email a customer, keep a human approval step. The takeaway: Stop asking ChatGPT questions all day. Give it one boring job that repeats. The people who win this phase won’t have the cleverest prompts. They’ll have three tasks running in the background while they do the work only they can do. Set one up tonight.

  To be clear, renting a tool isn't the problem. Gmail is a rental and that's fine, because you can export your data and leave anytime. The problem is a platform like Wix or Squarespace, where there's no export path and a price hike leaves you stuck. That's what ownership is really protecting against: your exit.
