@Mike_Stelzner You’ve made me believer Mike! Claude is amazing at coding. It’s enabled me to tell it what I’m looking for and Claude creates it on fly. I refine it, then upload the code to my site! Something I never dreamt possible with a non-coding background. So impressive!
Really big AI news from Google. It changes everything for businesses.
Yesterday they rolled out automated AI agents for everyone with a Workspace account.
And here's the cool part, you don't need to be techy.
Here's how they work. You start with a trigger.
Right now this includes receiving certain emails, chat messages, sheet updates, files added to drive, meetings you join, or forms completed.
For example, let's say you update a column in a spreadsheet, that can trigger a series of automations.
Then you can activate steps, which include:
• Ask Gemini (trigger AI)
• Ask a Gem (a custom GPT so to speak)
• AI Skills (recap, extract, summarize, decide)
• Gmail actions
• Chat actions (notify person in chat)
• Sheet changes
• Drive actions
• Calendar actions
• Doc actions (create or modify)
• Tasks
• Asana actions!
• Quickbooks actions
• Salesforce actions
Hopefully your wheels are turning.
Some out of the box agents include:
• Pre-meeting briefs in chat
• Send guests summaries & action items after meetings
• Get news headlines summarized daily
• Notify team about new responses from forms
• Get a daily summary of unread emails
The easiest way to access this is when you log into gmail, it's in the upper right corner next to the gear.
Here's my two cents.
Google has a massive advantage because its AI is fully integrated into its massive ecosystem.
I am very positive that the chatter at AI Business World (part of Social Media Marketing World) will be about this brand new thing Google just dropped.
There's a reason Sam Altman issued a "Code Red" a few days ago.
This is it.
What do you think? Have you tried this yet?
@karpathy Love this 👍 I’m curious if you could use one of the LLMs in with a camera turned on while working out, could it provide real time feedback and encouragement? I guess they all will tell you how great you’re doing lol But that could be next level training! 🤔
@paulroetzer Thank you and great list! In addition, I love yours and @Mike_Stelzner AI Explored, plus Beyond the Prompt and AI at Work. Both share some excellent practical uses in business.
@SpeakerJohnson So FIX IT! Americans don’t care whose fault it is. At least there is something in place for those who can’t get insurance with preexisting conditions. Put forth a plan to fix it and provide reasonable healthcare we can afford. If those who need it all die, who is left to vote?
@SenBillCassidy ❌Not going to solve the problem. Why not regulate health care costs? Medical procedures, ins premiums, pharma? They charge what they want & force struggling Americans to find a way to pay for health care. Your plan allows providers to line their pockets, not solve the problem.
@Scobleizer@ChrisMurphyCT I have been watching this space the past 12+ months and this is scary. I had no idea humanoid robots had progressed this much. I will dive into this more but it feels like this will happen faster than the report suggests. Interesting read and thx for sharing!
@espn@Disney@YouTubeTV you’re only hurting yourself by this nonsense. You cut off millions of viewers, which cuts the MNF ratings and ultimately, ad revenue. Plus the optics and how that relates to brand loyalty. This will hurt your wallets more than mine. #MNF
A really useful prompt for writing: "review this for accuracy, look up any facts you may want to challenge or explore."
Even if not perfect, it is a good sanity check.
Works well with Claude 4.1, GPT-5 Thinking, and Grok 4. Weirdly, Gemini 2.5 Pro often won't do web searches.
Feeling a full circle moment today! On 9/9 I will be hosting a live Q&A with @Mike_Stelzner during @GardenComms 2025 Virtual Event. Click the link for more information and come join us! https://t.co/PBUeksX1Ts
@Mike_Stelzner@SMExaminer Yeah, been around for a while and have always appreciated all the hard work you all do. Keep it coming and I look forward to being in person again at SMMW23!
Loved the #cbiz22 conference and learned so much. Like how to creat a #POAP for our virtual conference. Not too shabby one day after! Thank you @Mike_Stelzner and the @SMExaminer team for putting on such an awesome event!
@Mike_Stelzner True but if advertisers are decreasing their FB ads, where are they going to invest it? Even in a down econ? We’re pushing more $ into TikTok & seeing much higher ROI in terms of engagement/ followers. Perhaps I was secretly hoping the end was near (for FB)! 😁TY
@Mike_Stelzner Thanks Mike. We’ve been investing in more FB Aads and building a community on a FB group. This to me seemed like a signal to rethink that strategy. I took it as a downturn in FB and businesses are pulling back from the platform. Appreciate you’re perspective.
