  @mattpocockuk @BenjDicken @PlanetScale We do this but for tool quality regarding common errors (agent uses Gmail search filters incorrectly, misuses input args, etc) and it compounds really well! Some of our toolkits have over 100 versions over their lifetime if you take a look

  SMTP and POP definitely need a reset if companies like Google, Microsoft, Proton, Apple, etc., were to get together and just issue and make a new protocol that is ready for today's day-and-age spam control costs. Maybe even introduce a course for sending an email at a very, very, very, very small cost for the cost on the list, and also support rich text and proper formatting and Markdown standardization all across email. It would be in a very, very different domain, different ports, different security setup. Google can certainly take the lead in this thing with Gmail and Outlook, and Microsoft with Outlook, and Apple with Apple Mail, and everyone else will follow. Literally, Yahoo included, Hotmail included.

  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.

  You do not need a $2,400 to $3,600 annual subscription to run autonomous agent workflows. Pairing a local Hermes installation with $10 to $20 per month in standard API access replicates the viral automation stacks being shared online. Here is how to structure the core agent workflows without enterprise subscription overhead: 1. Local Device Control Add smart appliances to Home Assistant, generate an access token, and provide it to the Hermes gateway. Connect Hermes to Telegram or WhatsApp to issue natural language commands directly from your phone. 2. Full-Stack Web Deployment Grant Hermes terminal access, *** tooling, and Cloudflare/Vercel integrations. Instruct it to build, run local tests, deploy to production, and configure DNS records through connected tools. 3. Inbox & Cloud Decluttering Connect Gmail and Google Drive via MCP. Run scheduled read-only audits with strict safety rules: archive marketing newsletters and social notifications, while preserving invoices, receipts, and personal threads. Require one-click approval before modifying data. 4. E-commerce Support & Refunds Route support emails and Stripe MCP into Hermes. Configure the agent to verify customer eligibility against your return policy, locate the transaction ID, and stage the refund for manual sign-off. 5. Modular Multi-Agent Operations Avoid relying on a single monolithic prompt for complex operations. Divide tasks across isolated sub-agents: - Inbox Agent: Extracts incoming work orders from email. - Scheduling Agent: Queries calendar availability and matches time slots. - Communication Agent: Drafts SMS and email updates to clients. - Coordinator Agent: Dispatches sub-tasks and surfaces blocking issues to Slack. 6. Programmatic Asset & Media Creation Connect your repository and image generation APIs via the Nous Tool Gateway. Direct the agent to inspect placeholder assets, write prompts matching the game or UI context, generate visual files, resize them, and commit code updates. Setting bounded permissions, using MCP connectors, and keeping high-stakes actions behind manual approvals gives you full agent capabilities at API cost.

  $ARCHITECTURE UTILITY IS ALMOST HERE. THE TOKEN WILL POWER THE ENTIRE GROK BOT AGENT SYSTEM I'm close to finishing the payment layer that connects $ARCHITECTURE directly to the product. Sign in with Gmail → receive an internal wallet → deposit ARCHITECTURE → convert it into Agent Credits → use those credits to run research, writing, audit, outreach and other agent workflows. Every payment is distributed through the system: - 85% → Agent Credits that cover models, tools, browser sessions and cloud execution - 10% → permanently burned - 5% → Community Bounty Pool for bug reports, integrations, new workflows and useful contributions GOAL: ARCHITECTURE should not exist next to the product only as a token It should move through the product every time the agents perform real work The full utility loop is almost ready

  Every bot in Grok Bot gets its own actual computer in the cloud, a full machine with a browser, files, a terminal, and your real logins, and it keeps working after you close your laptop. That single fact is why one person can now run a Chief of Staff, a research lead, a sales rep, and a bookkeeper without hiring a single one of them. Here's the part that undercuts the "replace your whole team" hype: xAI's own documentation calls the shared cloud machine every bot runs on a real blast radius, meaning one bot isn't actually a security boundary from another. Every connection you make lives at the account level, so connecting Gmail once hands that access to every bot you'll ever create, which is exactly why the honest advice is to keep banking logins off it entirely and only connect what you genuinely need during beta. The mistake that kills most setups isn't technical, it's psychological. People pile outreach, content, receipts, and calendar management onto one clever bot until it drowns in its own context and burns through usage fast. The fix that actually works is almost boring: one narrow role per bot, briefed like a real job description with what it owns, what good output looks like in checks instead of adjectives, and exactly where it has to stop and wait for you. If an action can't be undone in under a minute, it waits, full stop. The real training here isn't the bot's, it's yours. Every time you interrupt a run to re-answer something the bot's profile already knew, you pay to relearn it, and context only compounds if you actually leave it alone for a week at a time. The suggested ramp is blunt about that: week one it only drafts and you read everything, by week four it runs on a schedule and you read a weekly summary instead of babysitting every click. So the real question isn't whether a bot can do the job, access already proved that. It's whether you can actually stop interrupting long enough to find out.

  The best agentmail use case i've seen wasn't even one of their official demos. During a big SF power outage, someone spun up a set of email inboxes overnight, one per household, so people could send complaint emails to the utility company, plus shared public inboxes so everyone could see what was actually being sent. The whole thing was live and posted publicly by the next morning. This is the real test of "email as agent identity," not a sandbox demo, a real situation where people needed to send real accountability emails fast, and the infrastructure just had to not be the bottleneck. No human's gmail to borrow, no manual signup, nobody babysitting deliverability. It needed an address, and it needed that address to actually land in an inbox instead of spam. Small story, also exactly the kind of thing that's easy to miss if you're only reading the funding headline.

  Some early thoughts on Grok @bot after using it over the weekend... This is a knowledge worker who can code rather than a coder that can do knowledge work. This will be the form factor for multi agent, single human companies going forward. No doubt about it. All of the basic features just work. In the first hour or so setting up plugins, using the VM, setting up routines didn't feel like a chore. Just a conversation. The speed at which it gathers context or updates plugins like Notion is amazing. The level of abstraction of feeling like your talking to a colleague with a role eases the mental load subconsciously when working. This is not talked about enough. But still room for improvement... The VM routines are SLOW. Increased speed here would be a big plus. I had some gmail signature issues with the plugin and tried to replicate in the VM instead and it was just painful. It NEEDS workspaces. Each representing a solo business with different bots/roles. Currently I'm solving this by having product owner bots for each of my repos. This could be a follow on to the upcoming templates feature I believe. Overall I'm happy to stick with this setup going forward as there are already lots of updates on the way as well as Grok 4.7. I'm willing to bet on the Cursor & xAI team also that its only going to get better from here. I've got some other thoughts on it that I hope to write an article about soon.

  So, I jumped on the @bot wagon. First stupid task after I connected Gmail: trash all the emails in the Promotions tab, around 48000. It was deleting just a bunch of them and really slowly. So he asked me to login directly. I did. You can look at the conversation, the bot was deleting one row at a time. Even after pushing it, despite saying it was going to select all, it got stuck. I had to stop it and doing the task myself, after 15 minutes and 21% of usage. 21% for failing deleting a bunch of emails. Now, I don't doubt Bot is an incredible tool for developers, on specific technical tasks. But if they want the masses to adopt this tech, not the way to go. And I'm saying that from 30 years in IT, I enjoy playing with it, I have also Hermes on trial. I still don't see the appeal for the common people, for now. I don't see them spending a lot of money in subcriptions/tokens for tasks that are easier and faster done in person (exactly 3 clicks on Gmail for mine). Potential is enormous and it will be probably reached in a few months (thanks to all of us training them while paying for it). I think a lot of people here on X are just "pumping" their posts to get engagement, telling the world how bots/harnesses are changing their life
