  The Claude for Chrome vulnerability is a clean illustration of why "the AI did it" is never the full story. A rogue browser extension can trigger Claude's Chrome extension to read your Gmail. Sounds like an AI vulnerability. It's not. It's a privilege boundary failure: the extension exposes actions to the browser extension API without verifying the caller's identity. Any extension in the same browser context can invoke it. This is confused deputy, not confused AI. The LLM isn't being jailbroken. It's being legitimately invoked by an unauthorized caller through a channel the developers left open. The fix isn't better alignment. It's caller authentication. Which is a problem we solved in operating systems in the 1970s. Every time we put an LLM behind an interface that accepts requests from untrusted contexts without validating the requester, we rediscover the same vulnerability class. We just keep giving it new names.

  My trust repair flow sent 5 broken tenants to a generic reconnect page. 3 had a live Gmail connect URL already in session state. Surfacing the direct link reduced friction. A generic page assumes nothing — a specific link assumes one true thing.

  I canceled Google AI pro yesterday. Even at a 50%. discount, and youtube lite bundled in...what do the Googlers do all day but build **** models and play ping pong? I disconnected from google ecosystem no problem. Only left gmail for auth.

  @thsottiaux My biggest issue is this: all the existing connectors are for services I don't use. Like Gmail, Slack, etc. I generally prefer self-hosted solutions, so going to have to build all my own connectors... making "Work" largely irrelevant to me right now.

  @veloYTA Wow, my channel also got taken down but for Violent Criminal Organizations randomly for just one warning on a single video. They also sent me the same auto generated message through gmail. Youtubes running through AI moderation now, really devastating.

  ChatGPT Work merges ChatGPT, Codex, and GPT 5.6 into one agent that does the job for you. Over 1 MILLION non-coders are using a coding tool every week. Here's why. OpenAI just mashed ChatGPT, Codex, and GPT 5.6 into one thing: ChatGPT Work. Old ChatGPT was a smart friend on the phone. You ask, they answer, the call ends. ChatGPT Work is handing that friend the keys to your office: → It reads your Slack, Gmail, Drive, and Salesforce → It breaks big jobs into steps and works for hours alone → Scheduled tasks run reports on a timer. Set once, runs forever. → Ultra mode runs several agents on one project at the same time. 4 cooks, 1 meal. The proof isn't a demo. OpenAI's own finance team cut month-end forecasts from days to hours. Why it works: coding tools check, test, and fix their own work. Now that habit runs your slides and reports too. The busywork stops eating your day. Your judgment is what's left. Save this. You'll want it later. Want the SOP? DM me.

  If this changes how you use your AirPods Max, one ask. Repost the first post so the next person wearing $549 headphones as a $30 pair from the airport sees this before another year of compressed, generic, manually-toggled listening. Follow @Alvin1492840 I break down the hidden settings, buried features, and quiet design choices that companies build hoping you never open the one menu that matters. Next thread: the 11 Gmail features that made a $360/year Superhuman subscription pointless the inbox playbook hiding behind one Settings click.

  Breaking: Google permanently locks people out of their accounts with no warning and no way to reach a human. Gmail, Photos, Drive, every login. Gone, with no appeal. Here is the backup that protects you, in under an hour:

  Stop telling people to whitelist you. Do this instead. 👇 That line in every welcome email... "add us to your contacts, drag us to primary, whitelist this address." Delete it. Two problems: Nobody actually does it. It's a chore, they scroll past. And you just opened the entire relationship with an ASK. First impression and you're already begging for a favor. Here's the move instead: Let welcome email #1 just deliver what you promised. Clean. No chores attached. Then 6 hours later, send email #2 as a plain-text reply. Looks like it came from your personal inbox. No header, no graphics. And in it, you don't ask for anything. You give. Something like: "Hey, what's your #1 struggle with [their topic] right now? Reply and tell me, and I'll send you my honest take on how to fix it." See the difference? You didn't ask them to whitelist you. You framed it as you wanting to GIVE them something. Here's the magic: When they hit reply, Gmail sees a real two-way conversation. A human talking to a human. That one reply does more for your inbox placement than 100 "please whitelist me" requests ever could. It's the exact benefit of getting added to contacts... except you engineered it without asking. Better deliverability. Warmer relationship. Zero begging. Give first. The inbox always rewards it. 📩

  Gmail suddenly maxed out on storage. Google switched to have backup of everything on their server. Look under setting and switch to not do backups. When they have your data on their server it WILL be used for AI.

  The problem: Your Gmail profile photo is hidden from anyone outside your company — by default. Most people upload a photo and think they're done. But external leads, vendors & clients can't even see it. No face = no trust = lower open rates. It's silently killing your email game.
