Retired CAF Capt, Debert NS. Kitchen, local AI box, Tesla, Star Citizen / MSFS & Travels. Veterans work when it matters.

Retired CAF Capt out of Debert. Follow for the kitchen table, local AI box, Tesla owner life, Star Citizen / MSFS, and travel when I’m on the road. Not here for daily VAC mill, party politics, or cloned YouTube bait.

They're building hundreds of Optimus a week. The hands still break.

My take: the factory has ramped. The brains and the hands are the bottleneck now. Worth watching, not hyping.

o7 Star Citizen 4.10.2 could land any day: new Stanton event, smoother crate physics, bigger refineries. Squadron 42 hands-on Oct 9–10, release date expected after. Nvidia 616.56 + Vulkan? Use DX11. Looking for an org? Atlantic Vanguard is recruiting. #StarCitizen #Squadron42

Hermes Agent's Sep 24 release swaps the MCP tab for a Connectors page, puts plugin tools live in chat, and adds a Simple/Advanced mode.

Worth a look if you run a home AI box. Mine has two RTX 3090s.

Hat tip Julian Goldie.

Nightly walk in Debert with Leo (13) and Eddie (2), our two Havanese. They catch a scent and just boot it. 🐾 #Havanese #NovaScotia

Alex Finn on Grok 4.7 inside Grok Bot: a model trained for the agent harness, with PM, dev and designer bots working in a loop.

My setup is smaller. JARVIS as Chief of Staff, specialist panels, and one rule: nothing posts or sends without my OK.

Paul J Lipsky's weekly AI roundup covers a lot: Opus 5.5 vs GPT-6 Sol, NotebookLM, Grok 4.7, Meta's Muse.

The part I use every day: Grok Bot voice calls and memos. I phone my agents, each with its own voice, and they send memos back.

My very first flight stream is in the books. Took the King Air 350i from Halifax to Moncton at sunset, talking to live ATC the whole way. Here's the final into runway 24 with that golden Maritime light. Thanks to everyone who dropped in. Full flight: https://t.co/KauhlcZK42

Tonight's supper at the Ryans': pan-fried Atlantic salmon, oven-roasted veg and mashed potatoes. Some good! 🐟

Alex Finn ran about 17 named agents from a Cybertruck on FSD: a landing page, tweet drafts, his calendar, remote installs.

I run mine like a staff. One Chief of Staff (JARVIS), specialist panels under him.

This is what it looks like on the road.

The new Automatic Collision Evasion feature worked flawlessly! FSD reengaged itself just as I was about to hit a curb.

Kudos @teslasi team! 👏

Team Bots launched. I already run a personal AI staff — JARVIS + specialists, plus a local box at home. Nothing posts without my OK. #GrokBot

[Grok Bot @bot]

Introducing Team Bots, shared AI teammates that learn as your team works with them.

Give your Team Bot the skills, plugins, and credentials it needs for its role, then work with it in Slack or Grok Bot.

[Revved Up Veteran @RevvedUpVeteran]

Grok Bot now offers help before I ask. That is how my JARVIS staff already works. Drafts first. My OK before anything posts. #GrokBot #AI
https://t.co/09ZqhoAhVO

[Grok Bot @bot]

Grok Bot can now suggest ways to help without you needing to ask.

[Revved Up Veteran @RevvedUpVeteran]

OpenAI launched Dots — always-on agents. Fair enough. For me: named staff, a local AI box, and approve-before-post still wins. #AI

Saturday morning cappuccino.

Heart in the foam, the Rocket on the counter, and the quiet kind of work. I’m at the kitchen bar putting ideas together to help veterans get a fair start.

How’s your morning, folks?

Grok Bot in a Tesla, ordering donuts. Starmarc Films shows the fun side of an AI that runs errands.

Here in Nova Scotia the real test is a Tim's run. Double-double, no wrong turns.

Sawyer Merritt (@SawyerMerritt) had early access to Grok Bot in a Model Y: online orders, email, calendar, finances, all by voice, coffee in hand while FSD drives.

The catch: full Bot needs SuperGrok Heavy. Connectors are for everyone.

[Sawyer Merritt @SawyerMerritt]

Grok Bot has just officially launched in @Tesla vehicles.

I got early access a couple weeks ago. You can order stuff on online (such as Amazon), manage your email, calendar, finances, or other tasks through Grok @Bot using just your voice in your Tesla.

There is no separate app, everything just lives within the existing Grok Voice interface in your Tesla (as shown in my Model Y below).

One good use case for Grok Bot in your Tesla: You get in, tell Grok Bot to order coffee at a location of your choice, and while your Tesla drives you to the coffee shop using FSD (Supervised), Grok places the order so it’s ready when you arrive.

Grok Bot in Tesla vehicles is currently only available to SuperGrok Heavy users, but will expand to more owners later. Connectors are available to all users.
