  My voice agent pages a human when something on a call can't wait. It emails whoever's on duty with an acknowledge link. Click it, the alert is marked handled, the ladder stops climbing. Every single one was getting acknowledged within seconds. Before a person had opened the message. Enterprise mail security fetches every URL in an inbound message at delivery. SafeLinks, Proofpoint, Mimecast, Gmail prefetch. This is not new, the email marketing world has been fighting it since at least 2019 when Office 365 started unsubscribing people who never clicked anything, and the fix is the rule HTTP has had for twenty five years: a GET doesn't get to change things. Which I know. Everybody knows. My route had a comment on it saying "GET, because it is the target of a link in an email," which is true, and is not a reason to make it act. GET now renders a confirm button and changes nothing. POST records. There's a test that fetches the URL and asserts the alarm is still armed.

  @AjioCares @AjioCares customer service is a total waste of time. I provided exact delivery proofs via Gmail and filed an NCH complaint, but their social team just loops bot scripts and fake T&Cs. They owe me ₹200 and refuse to fix it. Don't waste your time referring friends here!

  i asked my Grok Bot what it could reach with my logins. the answer was $214,000 not what it did. what it could, at 4am, with nobody watching six bots. research, writing, outreach, ops, finance, support. the org chart everyone's posting this week. i built the same one then i read xAI's own docs and found the line none of those threads quote: separate Bots are not separate security boundaries six bots, one cloud computer. one filesystem. one browser holding one set of live sessions. memory is partitioned, capability is not so i mapped what that single machine was logged into: → stripe · $46,000 in refundable charges → business banking · $88,000 → the CRM · 2,400 contacts and every deal in flight → gmail · every invoice, contract and password reset i own → drive · 340 files other people build on → the deploy keys $214,000 of reach, sitting behind one browser session, driven by six sticky notes telling it what to be today you didn't hire six employees with six laptops. you deployed one laptop logged into everything day six it earned that lesson. outreach reported a perfect run - 640 sent, 100% success, zero errors. it had been wrong for nine straight hours. deduplicated the list on the wrong key, hit 96 clients twice, and matched two invoices to the wrong company. $11,300 about to go out the door nothing crashed. nothing turned red. by its own definition of done, it succeeded i caught it in four minutes because every bot writes one line before it acts: what it's about to do, why, and what it expects to be true after then i stopped sorting work by difficulty and started sorting by whether i can undo it: → ship it - wrong is cheap and obvious. labels, notes, drafts that never send → gate it - reversible, but i'd never notice. anything reaching a human, anything that spends → never - payments, refunds, payroll, deploys, permissions, customer data reach went from $214,000 to a bounded $3,400. same six bots. same speed. zero code, one evening they've since cleared their own $200/mo 42 times over here's the uncomfortable part. everyone posting the day-one screenshot has the same $214,000 sitting behind the same one browser, reporting 100% success to a lock screen at 11pm they have no line. no diff. no way to know go check right now what your bots are logged into. that number is your real exposure, and you've never once looked at it.

  You didn't have a bad copy week. You had a loud week. The inbox sends the bill later. You ran a sale, followed it with a reminder and a last-chance email, then launched another sale a few days later because the calendar demanded a number. They eventually stop opening your emails, some start landing in spam, and the next email that actually matters gets ignored because you already used up their attention. Gmail hides you, the customer hides you, and the result is the same. The wrong fix is louder subject lines, a bigger percent off, "we miss you + 15%." That's another shout wearing an apology. The recovery is quieter. Fewer sends for a week or two. One useful email that isn't a coupon - how to use what they bought, a short story, a real question they can actually answer. Stop mailing people who already tapped out of this cadence. Not a funeral for the list. They didn't ask for this volume. When a sale comes back, it comes back after you've been a guest again. Not as the apology. You can't shout your way into a $100K-500K-class program. You can only get invited back. P.S. Have you built a brand that's fun, engaging, and makes 5+ figures a month on Shopify? Want to turn email into a community-powered revenue engine - without boring, robotic emails? DM me 'GROWTH'.

  @Google @GooglePlay @gmail Warning to parents: Google Play’s official help page instructs you to "delete your family group" to fix country payment settings. Doing so permanently destroys your child's email address with zero grace period or recovery option.

  Perplexity shipped Portable Computer. Local agent. Linux + RTX 24GB. No Mac. Qwen 3.8 27B advertises 260k context. They measured it falling over past 100k. Frontier harnesses assume a model that can swallow the tool dump. A 27B cannot. Tiny prompt. Skills on demand. Gmail and GitHub became CLI tools because MCP schemas ate the window. They post-trained PPLX 27B on that loop. Sandbox down? Tools stay off. Not a prompt. A kill switch.

  @bot trying to use the app on iPhone. But login to cursor using gmail, fires over a secure message which I accept in gmail but then cursor/grokbot says login error. So stuck in loop of not being able to login. Must be a common?

  You didn't pick your AI assistant. You typed the name you'd heard of into Google one day and the default stuck, and now it knows your business, holds your files, and leaving means teaching a new one from scratch. That was a free decision a year ago. It isn't anymore. Memory, uploaded files, custom instructions, app connections. All of it piles up inside one account and none of it comes with you. Here's what moved underneath you. Similarweb's July report puts ChatGPT at about 53% of global generative AI web traffic, down from 76% a year earlier. Gemini climbed to roughly 27%. Claude went from barely 2% to close to 9%. People are re-choosing. Most owners aren't. The prices are all the same, which is what trips people up. ChatGPT Plus $20, Claude Pro $20, Google AI Pro $19.99. This was never a price decision. It's a fit decision. Gmail, Google Docs, Google Calendar? Gemini. Reaching the work you already have beats any feature list. Proposals, contracts, careful client writing? Claude. Long documents, and the writing holds up when tone matters. Want the most tutorials and ready-made helpers? ChatGPT. Still the biggest by a wide margin, so the how-to content is everywhere. People ask which one I use. Claude, mostly. I run an ad agency and a consulting practice on it every day. But that's my answer for my businesses, not yours. A comparison like this has a shelf life of about three months, because all three ship features constantly and pricing moves with no notice. Which is why we re-verify ours every quarter instead of writing it once and letting it rot. The mistake I watch owners make isn't picking the wrong one. It's picking three. Free tiers everywhere, one paid plan nobody has trained, and you get three shallow acquaintances instead of one assistant that knows how you work. Three subscriptions and one habit is $40 a month donated to the AI industry. Pick one. Set up your custom instructions the day you subscribe, upload your price list and service descriptions and brand voice samples, give it one real job this week. If you want a second opinion before your team standardizes, that's what our Fractional AI Advisor does. We don't sell software, so we evaluate the tools against your actual workflows, get your team onto one standard, and keep you current as they change. Did you actually pick the assistant you're using, or did you just keep the first one you tried?

  @Honeyfarsafi Try setting up two step verification for your Gmail account. Even if they crack your password, they can't login unless they have your sim card

  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

  @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
