  kind of amusing just how bad search is across every platform that's not specifically a search engine. spotify search? atrocious. gmail search? somehow also bad. this seems like a very solved problem

  ‘Covid Science’ that was so ‘gold standard’…they had to hide it because they knew they’d be in ‘trouble’… “I forgot to say there is no worry about FOIAs. I can either send stuff to Tony on his private gmail, or hand it to him at work or at his house. He is too smart to let colleagues send him stuff that could cause trouble”

  @evanburns Tried logging in via gmail credentials getting error in authentication. Then tried via email but another error. You should fix that at priority. Happy to go over call with your support to walk through the issue

  The point that needs to be made loud and clear about David Morens pleading guilty to conspiracy to cover up communications about the origins of Covid is that this was not some scheme run by underlings operating around Fauci. It goes straight to Fauci himself, and we have the documentary evidence to prove it. They may never charge him, and will presumably point to the pardon as the reason while prosecuting only the underlings, but that does not change the underlying facts. One particularly egregious example is the email chain below. Peter Daszak first reaches out to Morens about how to deal with the fallout from EcoHealth being blamed for failures connected to Fauci's grant to the Wuhan lab. Daszak plainly does not want to be left holding the bag. In the next email, Morens reports that he has discussed the problem with Fauci. Even more revealingly, the group is also making sure that Erik Stemmy, the NIH program officer responsible for Fauci's Wuhan grant has his story straight. Then, in the last email in the chain, Gerald Keusch of Boston University, who served as the backchannel in these discussions to keep them outside government communications, adds that Fauci had specifically warned them about using Gmail to circumvent FOIA, because if they accessed Gmail on a government device, the communications could still be discovered. That is the point that should not get lost. This was not simply a few subordinates freelancing around Fauci. The documentary record places Fauci directly inside the discussions over the underlying grant fraud, the effort to coordinate the official story, and the mechanics of keeping communications beyond the reach of FOIA.

  I've been thinking why grok bot needs no API when zapier, make, MCP servers all exist thing is, it's a different mental model: traditional automation: → you connect app A to app B through an API → someone has to build + maintain that integration → if the app has no clean API, you're stuck → breaks the moment an endpoint changes grok bot: → opens a real browser on its own cloud machine and logs in as you → clicks around like a human would → doesn't care if there's an API. if you can use the app, it can → covers the long tail of tools nobody built a zapier connector for when it hits a login it can't do, it pulls up the login screen and hands control back to you. you type the password yourself, click done, it resumes. same handoff pattern for gmail, linkedin, notion. a little skeptical about the actual safety of inputting credentials like that, but we'll see if this turns into another data breach scandal. there's also this other thing: all your bots share one cloud computer + one credential pool. xAI's own docs say don't treat separate bots as a security boundary. so the finance bot and the research bot are looking at the same logins.

  Wild Gmail experience this week. I added a TXT DNS verification record to our return path subdomain (marketbeat dot analyst ratings dot net) in Cloudflare to add it to Google Postmaster Tools. Somehow that caused Gmail to think our CNAME record for that subdomain which points to SendGrid has no valid SPF record. Gmail starts blocking about 30% of our messages because they had no valid SPF record and weren't validated. Took about 36 hours to figure out. I removed the new TXT record and the issue fixed itself within an hour.

  I used to think “agents in group chats” were a gimmick. Now I think the bigger problem is that too much strategy still lives in my head, and too many useful skills are too messy or sensitive to share cleanly. That’s what changed my mind. I’m starting to think a multiagent should become the default workspace for our growth team. Not because Slack or gmail are unusable. They’re just very good at holding messages, and not that good at holding work. What I actually want is one place where people can @ my Codex directly to ask positioning and strategy questions. A lot of the time the problem is not execution. It’s that people are operating on slightly different versions of what I want. For example, yesterday Mengyao and Alisa pulled me into a meeting to ask what I meant by doing a small creator push for OK eight. My expectation was not “go broad.” It was really 2 different motions: - pure volume: find cheap AI creators at scale - deep collaboration: work with a very small number of creators, but go deep on content, including interviews, reaction videos, and co-created content That kind of nuance gets lost constantly if the only interface is “ask Monica in a meeting.” And honestly, I also forget to sync strategy changes fast enough. Sometimes I change my mind on priorities, or realize an angle is wrong, or want to shift the goal slightly, and I just forget to tell everyone in time. Then different people are working off different versions of the strategy. Nothing is fully broken, but the team drifts. I also want the group to automatically turn the past week of work into a real weekly report. I’ve tried asking people to write trackers before, and it’s painful for everyone. Not everyone is trained to produce polished internal docs, and more importantly, they shouldn’t have to spend time doing that just to prove work happened. What I actually want from a weekly report is: - what worked - what didn’t - what content performed unusually well - whose priorities are off - where output quality is weak - which direction feels wrong That should be inferred from the work, not manually reconstructed afterward. Then there’s the skill-sharing problem. Some of the most useful internal skills are hard to share directly because they expose too much. Sometimes sharing a deep skill means exposing keys. Sometimes it means exposing messy internal setup. Sometimes it’s just too complicated to package cleanly. I built a pretty complex video editing skill recently, and it made this very obvious. In theory I want that capability to be reusable. In practice, sharing it cleanly is hard, and sharing it carelessly is dangerous. I also keep running into a simpler but equally stupid problem: the context already exists somewhere, but I forget to attach it. For example, Mengyao ran a Reddit reply test recently, and the doc from that experiment has a huge amount of signal in it. It could shape product direction, growth direction, and a lot of downstream decisions. But when I’m talking to Codex about strategy, I still sometimes forget to include it. That is such a stupid failure mode. I used to think “agents in group chats” were a toy. Now I increasingly think a lot of teams do not need a smarter agent first. They need a workspace where the agent is already sitting inside the context, absorbing strategy changes as they happen, and using the shared work without everyone manually re-explaining it. We’re going to test this internally for real. I’ll report back next month with what worked, what was annoying, and what turned out to be fake.

  @Garry153973 @samsheffer @gmail Gmail app works pretty well. What problems do you face? I do want them to let us use the default iOS message/email tunes though.

  there are people building an entire AI company on one shared computer right now and none of the coworkers have ever met each other i didn't believe it until i saw the demo myself, xAI just shipped this as Grok Bot, and every other AI tool you've used just became a chatbot next to it setup is 4 moves: 1/ download the Grok Bot app, works on phone too 2/ tap new bot, tap chief of staff, the first hire exists 3/ open your profile tab, go to plugins, connect Gmail, Google Drive, and Calendar 4/ point it at your company's Drive folder, that's the actual context a chief of staff runs on each bot signs into your real tools with your real login. it doesn't hand you a draft, it finishes the job inside the actual app the part most people miss: this scales past one bot. build a research bot, a writer bot, a chief of staff bot and they pass work between each other without you routing anything the whole roster shares one computer, one browser, one set of logins. sign in once for one bot and the rest are already signed in most people are treating this like a smarter search bar the ones who already set it up have a small team that never clocks out
