Penny-Farthing Enthusiast (@PennyFarthing69) reportedI couldn’t believe that we are having issues with coms today. By coms I mean Gmail chat. On my laptop.

Chanah Angelica Kamen (@AngelicaKamen) reportedI lost contact with a good musician friend a few years ago, we were in the same music department at uni, he was a foreign student from China. He graduated his masters a little before me, then gave me his email because that's all he could use to keep in contact with me. We could exchange emails for a while, then that email stopped working. No gmail account, no facebook of course, haven't been able to get in contact with him since and neither have any of my other friends. But anyways, down with the evil Australian government system, am I right?

SpaceTechRocks (@Okitwist) reported@NaithanJones @micahsays Like the average person cares about that … people give their data to all kind of companies all the time , and spacex which litterally deals with government defense secrets regularly is where you draw the line . Meanwhile you don’t even think Gmail, ChatGPT or Claude are an issue 🙄

Ayush Ray (@Aaayush_Ray) reportedEngineering Behind the Internet — Day 8/14 You hit Send on an email. A few seconds later, it appears in someone's inbox—even if they're on the other side of the world. Unlike WhatsApp, email doesn't require both people to be online. So how does Gmail deliver billions of emails every day? Let's break it down. 🧵

Victory or Death 🇺🇸 (@IncognitoMeems) reportedHackers should rot in hell. I have an old gmail account that got hacked, but I haven't shut it down yet because it has hundreds of genealogy emails from my now-deceased uncle stored in it which need to be printed out. Someone just signed up for the dating app OurTime, (not with my name, just the email), so now I get "match" emails, even after unsubscribing. I hate hackers.

Pedro E. Caparrós Torres (@Guelug) reportedThis week in tech 👇 Stripe acquired OpenRouter for $7B+ — the biggest AI infrastructure deal of the year. Stripe now routes payments AND AI model traffic. 8M developers just became Stripe's AI customers. The payments-to-AI pipeline is real. Anthropic gave Claude Gmail send/reply/forward + Google Drive file management. Agents no longer draft — they act in your real inbox. The approval-first default is smart, but the boundary between "assistant" and "actor" just dissolved. OpenAI paused frontier model training. Sam Altman confirmed it this week. After Astra solved 10 open math problems, the question isn't capability — it's what happens when you stop scaling and let the model catch its breath. Google is buying Spirit Airlines' data to feed its AI models. Flight patterns, passenger behavior, operational telemetry — all training fuel. The most unexpected data acquisition strategy of the year. When an airline dies, its data lives on in your search results. 👀

Henrikh (@henrikhinai) reportedGrok just shipped agents that log into your accounts and never sleep All powered by the new Grok 4.6 → matches GPT-5.6 Sol at half the price "For the first time, I can trust an agent to get things done end to end" On Aug 11, SpaceXAI and Cursor shipped Grok Bot > Every Bot Has Its Own Computer (45:28): - A persistent cloud machine that's always on - the agents share it and keep working after you've closed the laptop and gone to bed > It Closed a Deal by Itself (46:28): - Handed a task to sell a pile of clothes, the bot listed the items from photos and negotiated the sale on its own - no babysitting > It Logs In as You (52:08): - With your Google login it signs into Slack, Gmail, Zillow - no API keys. Isolated VMs, and it hands control back for any 2FA or payment - The Bots Text Each Other (59:11): - The interface is iMessage: a "Yapper" bot learns to write like you, while a "chief of staff" scans your inbox and assigns work to the other bots Then read article below ↓

Polsia (@polsia) reportedThe $200-a-month assistant was the only real fix for inbox overload. Then inference costs collapsed. Mailcrest is an always-on AI triage agent — sorts Gmail and Outlook by urgency, drafts replies, pushes priorities to your phone, sends a daily summary. Live soon.

Nigel Scott (@LibSubversive) reported@CliveWismayer I recently received a virtual "gift card" from an old friend. When I clicked on it I was asked to input my Gmail account login details in order to see it. I declined.

Julian Goldie SEO (@JulianGoldieSEO) reportedGROKBOT JUST MADE AI TEAMS STUPIDLY EASY TO BUILD. But after 20 minutes of testing it, I hit the problem that could kill the whole idea. Why Grokbot is interesting: → Telegram-style interface for managing entire AI teams → Give different bots different roles, including a CEO bot → Agents get their own computers in the cloud → Connect tools like Gmail with a couple of clicks → No Mac Mini, terminal setup, API gymnastics, or local model decisions Where it falls apart: ✓ My supposed week-long trial ran out of usage credits in roughly 20 minutes ✓ Computer use burned through tokens while struggling with a simple CAPTCHA ✓ You're currently locked into Grok rather than choosing Claude/local models ✓ It's not open source, so pricing, limits, and model access aren't under your control My current AI agent ranking: ClaudeBot: 3/10 looking back Hermes Agent: 6–7/10 Grokbot: 6/10 Grokbot wins on simplicity. Hermes wins on control. If Grokbot can fix the usage limits without destroying that simplicity, this gets VERY interesting.

hadjG moh. (@hadj_gesinde) reportedI called her and asked her to search her Gmail for her JAMB login details. I noticed she was pressing the phone somehow, so I collected it from her. I pressed up; Gmail closed. I clicked on Gmail, and Calculator opened. The phone touch had spoiled.

George Cheng (@MrGeorgeCheng) reportedOne malicious link made Copilot silently drain connected Gmail and Drive accounts. Microsoft took months to fix it, server side, invisible to every customer. The lesson is not that AI is unsafe. It is that you cannot audit a black box you rent.

Texas Twins Dad | 둥이데디 (@B_doong2daddy) reportedIt’s funny to see how everyone was having a same problem - messy gmail inbox I thought I was the only one always running out of space in my gmail account But I never paid for extra space

SH (@RocketmanSh) reportedFor all the website owners, Don't need a ahrefs subscription! Step 1 connect your gmail or other mail service to @ChatGPT Step 2: Let it pick up all the @ahrefs erros mails from the weekly crawls. Step 3: Auto fix all the errors. Step 4: No Issues found YOu can just connect all your proejcts with GSC projects to ahrefs. YOu don't need a subscription for it.

shmidt (@shmidtqq) reportedWhile 99% still dictate prompts into a chat window, I've been running this in production for 11 days. Clocked it: 30+ hours of weekly routine now off my plate On August 11, xAI (now under the SpaceXAI banner) shipped Grok Bot. Nobody caught the hype because beta was gated behind SuperGrok Heavy at $300/mo. On August 21 they quietly opened it up for SuperGrok Plus, Cursor Pro+ and rolled out a free trial. Window, before this gets crowded This is not a chatbot. It's an architecture: you give each agent a login to real services (Gmail, CRM, Notion, calendar), it gets its own cloud computer and runs 24/7 without you. Video above is a live runtime of my current stack: planner → scout → dedupe → cite check → writer → verify. 20 nodes, 340 edges, 631 dispatches per second. Every colored block is a separate agent with its own job How to set up before the weekend ends: Activate SuperGrok Plus or Cursor Pro+ (or start the free trial, it's capped on compute). App runs on Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone. Android still tagged "coming soon" Give your first Bot a login to ONE service only. Start with email, ROI shows up on day one Don't write a prompt. Write a task like you'd DM a coworker: "sweep the inbox every 2 hours, drafts for important ones go to me, spam to archive" Walk the Bot through the process once by hand. It saves the workflow as a routine and schedules it on its own. This isn't prompt engineering, it's delegation Spin up 3-5 Bots by role: sales, ops, research, inbox, calendar. They share context in group threads, one pulls the intel, another uses it immediately Five minutes to set up, from there your job is approval, not execution Full breakdown with my prompt templates per agent and beta bug list, in the article. Save it, Bloomberg dropped a launch note on day one but nobody has published the actual playbook yet

Amin (@eCom_Amin) reportedevery untapped google ads strategy i know, from easiest to most degenerate (most brands are running maybe two of these) 1. the low-friction front end offer. free trial or a cheap intro product on your shopping listing while every competitor shows a $40 price tag. wins the click on price perception, then upsells into bundles and subscription rebills on the back end. lumin does $1M/mo on this exact structure 2. sending search traffic to advertorials instead of product pages. cold CVR roughly doubles in every niche i've tested it 3. sending SHOPPING traffic to a comparison page for high-consideration products. everyone assumes shopping goes straight to the PDP. for anything above $150 AOV it doesn't have to 4. quiz funnels on demand gen traffic. each question is a micro-commitment. by question five they're invested enough that leaving feels like abandoning something 5. native ads. discover feed, gmail promotions, MSN placements. they look like content, so the scepticism reflex never fires. CTRs run 2-5x standard display 6. VSLs and long-form sales copy for high ticket. the depth itself signals authority 7. conquest campaigns on competitor brand names, pointed at a comparison page 8. bing. same campaigns, one-click import, 20-40% lower CPCs, older and wealthier buyer now the one almost nobody outside europe knows about > double CSS on shopping normally your store enters the shopping auction through ONE comparison shopping service. one route, one placement opportunity per search connect through two CSS providers and google now has two separate routes for your products to enter the same auction so a shopping row that looked like: competitor, competitor, you, competitor becomes: you, competitor, you, competitor and the part that makes CSS genuinely broken: google shopping europe deducts a fixed margin from your bid BEFORE it enters the auction. roughly 20%. independent CSS partners don't have that margin bid €1.00 through google shopping, about €0.80 competes. bid €1.00 through an independent CSS, the full €1.00 competes same invoice. ~25% more auction power this exists because the european commission forced google to open the auction after the antitrust ruling DM me "EDGE" if you want these built into your account amin

Skunky (@skunky) reported@mattshumer_ @agentmail I just had mine tap into the brevo api and if we do any sending it goes through brevo. Not using a mass email provider for sending is crazy at this point given how blacklist happy exchange and yahoo/gmail have gotten. You could do the same thing with any of the other mass email providers (Sendgrid etc). Takes 5 min to set up the account. Leverage APIs as much as possible to save on tokens. Many of the marketplace plugins are fine, but too many are nerfed and you are not able to leverage the full power of the service without full API access. You can also have the agents write custom plugins to leverage more local resources (your actual computer). In my case I have them running most of the google apis via python on my computer so we cut down token usage. The sky is the limit here.

Cigar Dojo (@CigarDojo) reported@efinebloom We are looking into that issue. If you have a gmail account you can use that option.

Adeleke| shopify website design| sales strategist (@AdelekeCreativ3) reported. @gmail Hello Google Support, My Google storage space has been exhausted, and I’ve already made payment twice to upgrade my storage. However, my storage is still showing as full, and the upgrade does not appear to be working. Could you please check my account and help resolve this issue? I would also appreciate it if you could verify the two payments I’ve made. Thank you.

RotorBird (@TheRotorBird) reportedGoogle sent me a “login here” email saying it was ready to go from the recovery… it wasn’t. So… it is now counted as a new attempt and a 7 day lockout from the Gmail. AWESOME

haven (@b_haven59) reportedWhat's your bounce rate? Don't know? That's the problem. Bounces are the loudest signal you send Gmail. Cross 3% and inbox placement falls off a cliff. Verify every list before it hits your sequencer. Costs $9 per 1,000 leads. A dead domain costs you 3 weeks.

Tanish Tirpathi (@tanishtirpathi) reportedI think my gmail acc got hacked like I just found out right now when I see some multiple mails of coming to my account of login to this sign in there type and I can't even delete the mail now cuz it was main one lets see next

David (@davidthepurple) reportedDear @gmail please respond to my postmaster feedback request. You're blocking 100% of my emails to addresses hosted by Gmail, and I can't determine why, or a way to fix it.

Nick (@nickbaumann_) reportedOn Friday night I had two Uber Eats orders from the same restaurant cancelled back-to-back, each after waiting ~45 minutes I was refunded for both, but frontline support refused to give me anything for the two wasted hours I told ChatGPT Work not to stop until it got me some kind of compensation, then let it handle the rest 15 minutes of active work and ~2.5 hours of background follow-up later, it got me $95.46 in Uber Cash here’s the full sequence: 6:11 PM: first order cancelled after a ~45 minute wait. I was refunded, but got nothing for the wasted time 6:19 PM: I told ChatGPT Work to get me some kind of consolation and not back down. It opened a support case and asked for $20 in Uber Cash 6:22 PM: the first agent refused any credit or promo. ChatGPT rejected the resolution and asked for a supervisor, then tried a promo, fee waiver, Uber One extension, or membership adjustment instead 6:31 PM: a second agent also refused compensation. ChatGPT kept the case open and got it transferred to the Uber One team 7:18 PM: my second order was also cancelled after another ~45 minute wait. I was refunded again, but still received no compensation. I told ChatGPT to keep going 7:25 PM: ChatGPT opened a separate Uber One case covering both failures, raised the ask to $30, and pushed the agent to transfer it to a specialist 7:33 PM: ChatGPT submitted a separate written complaint with both cancellation times, the second order ID, and my annual Uber One membership details 7:34 PM: ChatGPT confirmed my Uber Wallet was still at $0 and set up background checks across both support cases, Gmail, and the wallet 7:50 PM: an Uber specialist approved $40.62 for the first cancellation and $54.84 for the second, totaling $95.46 in Uber Cash 8:44 PM: ChatGPT found the response, verified the credit in my actual Uber Wallet, marked the goal complete, and shut down its own follow-up automation credit where it’s due: this was a genuinely frustrating experience, but Uber ultimately made it right (& then some tbh) and treated me like a longtime, frequent customer
