There is so much opportunity when it comes to AI and travel. I was excited to see this new collaboration between @OpenAI and the @DubCityCouncil and wrote this article where I included some additional use cases where AI could be used by tourism operators, councils and destination marketing organisations in the future #ai #artificialintelligence #travel #tourism #aiintegration

@NotebookLM When will you make it possible for Workspace accounts to share outside of the organisation? So many businesses work with clients that would 100% benefit from being able to share content

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

@NotebookLM I would love for cinematic video overviews to be customisable in their length-no matter what prompt I tried I could barely get it under four minutes in length. Ideally I would love to be able to prompt a cinematic video for 30 secs, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 4 minutes, whatever I need

@stevenbjohnson @NotebookLM I love this new feature - I actually came across it while preparing for a @NotebookLM workshop I presented yesterday for @SMExaminer AI Society, so they all got news of this update before you officially announced it 😂

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

There’s nothing more stressful than setting TWO alarms for a 6am AI training workshop and NEITHER of the alarms go off! 🤦‍♀️ fortunately I made it in time.

I loved presenting to @SMExaminer’s AI Society yesterday on one of my favourite AI tools, @NotebookLM

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

@NotebookLM Oohhh I was totally ahead of this announcement-I found this out as I was preparing for my workshop with @SMExaminer on how to use @NotebookLM and showed everybody in their AI Society membership yesterday 😀

@joshwoodward @NotebookLM @GeminiApp I got it, yay 🙌 i’m impressed, and now I have to basically rewrite a good chunk of my presentation 😂

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

@NotebookLM @GeminiApp So available to pro on a personal account but not yet available on a workspace, correct?

@lydiahallie Sadly Claude cowork couldn’t perform the most basic of tasks at all today but did a good job chewing up my usage limit trying 🥲

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

Something is definitely wrong with @claudeai Co-work today! it was unable to complete one of the most basic of tasks, and totally chewed up my daily token usage in the process 🤦‍♀️

Claire Vo's first day with @OpenClaw it deleted her family calendar.

Now she runs 9 agents across 3 Mac Minis, and said "I haven't felt like this since I was a teenager learning to code."

Her sales agent Sam does a daily CRM sweep, identifies decision-makers from new signups, and sends personalized outreach—replacing a part-time salesperson she was paying 10 hours a week.

Her home agent Finn pings her and her husband every day at 3pm: "Which of you is picking up which kids?" Then flags when the oldest's basketball conflicts with the middle kid's soccer and asks how they want to split duties.

She also has agents for podcast prep, kids' homework help, and course project management.

Claire (host of How I AI, founder of @ChatPRD) started as one of OpenClaw's most vocal skeptics. She now calls it "a ChatGPT moment."

In our in-depth conversation, she breaks down:
🔸 Her exact setup: Mac Mini, separate Gmail, dedicated local account
🔸 The progressive trust model: first calendar access, then read email, then draft, then send — just like onboarding an EA
🔸 Why one agent is a mistake—and why she thinks about it like Slack channels, not a single assistant
🔸 How to use Claude Code as a "brain surgeon" to fix and manage your OpenClaw when things break
🔸 "The yappers API" — why rambling into a voice note is the highest-bandwidth way to set up your agent
🔸 Why management skills matter more than technical skills for making this actually work

@PackBropagated @minchoi @Apple Bummer! 🥺

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

@PackBropagated @minchoi Oh dang! So even if I use the Google Drive app? That’s a bummer 😢

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

@PackBropagated @minchoi Are all features exactly the same on both android and iOS?

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

@openart_ai When is Sora going to be available in Australia?

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

@JulianGoldieSEO ** currently only available in Ultra accounts

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

Is your Facebook glitching, or Claude is down?

Here is re-post of an internal post:

We have been working with the DoW to make some additions in our agreement to make our principles very clear.

1. We are going to amend our deal to add this language, in addition to everything else:

"• Consistent with applicable laws, including the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution, National Security Act of 1947, FISA Act of 1978, the AI system shall not be intentionally used for domestic surveillance of U.S. persons and nationals.

• For the avoidance of doubt, the Department understands this limitation to prohibit deliberate tracking, surveillance, or monitoring of U.S. persons or nationals, including through the procurement or use of commercially acquired personal or identifiable information."

It’s critical to protect the civil liberties of Americans, and there was so much focus on this, that we wanted to make this point especially clear, including around commercially acquired information. Just like everything we do with iterative deployment, we will continue to learn and refine as we go.

I think this is an important change; our team and the DoW team did a great job working on it.

2. The Department also affirmed that our services will not be used by Department of War intelligence agencies (for example, the NSA). Any services to those agencies would require a follow-on modification to our contract.

3. For extreme clarity: we want to work through democratic processes. It should be the government making the key decisions about society. We want to have a voice, and a seat at the table where we can share our expertise, and to fight for principles of liberty. But we are clear on how the system works (because a lot of people have asked, if I received what I believed was an unconstitutional order, of course I would rather go to jail than follow it). But

4. There are many things the technology just isn’t ready for, and many areas we don’t yet understand the tradeoffs required for safety. We will work through these, slowly, with the DoW, with technical safeguards and other methods.

5. One thing I think I did wrong: we shouldn't have rushed to get this out on Friday. The issues are super complex, and demand clear communication. We were genuinely trying to de-escalate things and avoid a much worse outcome, but I think it just looked opportunistic and sloppy. Good learning experience for me as we face higher-stakes decisions in the future.

In my conversations over the weekend, I reiterated that Anthropic should not be designated as a SCR, and that we hope the DoW offers them the same terms we’ve agreed to.

We will host an All Hands tomorrow morning to answer more questions.

@steipete @openclaw What is the safest way to use openclaw if you’re not super technical and worried about security?

[Lisa Monks @ChipMonkMedia]

I’ve heard people say @OpenAI’s best days are behind them.

I don’t think so.

I think OpenAI just said… “hold my beer”.

Congrats @steipete and @sama. I’ve not tried @openclaw yet, but excited to see what happens with Agents in @ChatGPTapp
