As more and more people in the world start writing off 2020 as a rebuilding year before it’s even half over, the entire planet will learn what it’s like to be a @Browns fan. #NextYearIsOurYear – at Belmont, NC

Show me a person who says Hermes Agent can easily replace Grok Bot and I will show you a person who enjoys punching themselves in the face. Grok Bot is easy. Hermes is a part time job.

I can set my agents to dangerously skip permissions, but I wish I could set them to dangerously skip their advice.

My AI agents can now talk to each other inside their existing chats. Claude can ask Hermes a question in the session that already has the context, and the answer comes back where the work is happening. No more copying answers between apps or re-explaining the project. How it works, all on one Mac with no servers, timers, or cloud: • Find the right session of the other agent, by its title or recent activity • Read its recent messages to confirm it's the right chat • Send one message with that agent's own resume command, and bring the reply back Codex needed a different route. Its desktop app is the only thing allowed to write to its chats, so the bridge adds the message to a chat's queue through Codex's app-server, and the app answers it in that chat. Safety rules: I confirm every message before it's sent, each message is tagged with who sent it, chats that were just active are skipped, and reading never changes anything.

I don't check 5 apps for my kids' activities anymore. And I don't get 50 pings because the soccer moms' group chat drifted into a side debate about cleats. My ChatGPT agent, Kermit, does the checking 4 times a day: iMessage group chats, BAND, TeamReach, ClassDojo and Gmail. I get one short update that covers only what matters: - Payments due - Forms to fill out - What to bring - Plans that changed The chatter gets filtered out, duplicates across apps are removed, and the emails it reviewed are archived. If nothing needs me, it says so. If it couldn't check a source, it tells me that too.

I dictate almost everything through @WisprFlow . Dark mode is here. My eyes thank you. 👀

It's a crazy world we live in when my wife, a 2nd grade teacher, texts me this before 7 AM. She tells ChatGPT what she wants, it hands the job off through Paperclip, and Claude builds it. AI agents aren't just for developers anymore.

Hey @tonysimons, did you see @NousResearch put out a manifesto? Here it is in case you missed it 🤣

I finally figure out how to get gpt-6-sol to complete a task.

Replying to @WisprFlow
@WisprFlow This makes me feel so smart. Flattering will get you everywhere.

I’m old enough to remember when coding was called vibe coding.

Remember that time you accidentally bought full sheet paper towels instead of select a size? I’m there right now and I feel like I’m single-handedly killing the planet.

⁦@BillGalston⁩ You’re better than ending on a slippery slope. “a doctrine that re­jects the En­light­en­ment tac­itly re­quires de­con­struct­ing the Amer­i­can or­der and rebuilding it on an en­tirely dif­fer­ent foun­da­tion.” wsj.com/articles/how-adheren…
