launched my new show Show Me Your AI and the first episode is LIVE!!

want to be able to share resources for how you can ACTUALLY build things with AI. Every episode is showing, not just telling how to actually do things.

For the first ep, we cover 10 things you can actually do with Claude at Brainlabs right now. I'm talking writing emails that follow your style guide, vibe coding a cost of living calculator from scratch, and auto-sending your manager a weekly summary so say goodbye to time tracking!

I'm loving the AI content on X - has completely changed how I learn. New algorithm is remarkable work.

I decided to start posting again but I think I'm throttled. Years ago I ran a sponsored follower campaign on Twitter ads. Got loads of real but useless followers in 2 hours for like $5. Not bots, just dead weight from a dumb ad....

Anyone know how to clean this up without making it worse? Don't think X will like it if I try and automatically delete followers.

@ivanhzhao Outstanding work, what a team!

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

@damndanielliem @tryramp @sebgoddijn This is outstanding and high value advice. I wrote a similar piece which builds on some of these concepts in particular how to architect infrastructure so that people iterate / refine company wide skills - so that there is a community improvement not solo development.

@oliviaakory Not if their EA is now claude coding 😁

@mstockton this is excellent advice

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

@realfunnyeric Correct

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

@NotionHQ NICE! We have been working around this very awkwardly ny naming each person taking an action... pleased to be dropping that pronto !

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

@mrnickwilkinson @NotionHQ 100% Nick

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

It's called @NotionHQ and it already exists. For serious Enterprises. We have meeting notes, company knowledge, skills, feedback, team spaces, client info, agents, and our data warehouse feeds in. It is remarkable technology and it already works.

Company Brain
@t_blom

Every company has critical know-how scattered across people's heads, old Slack threads, support tickets, and databases, and AI agents can't operate like that.

We think every company in the world is going to need a new primitive: a living map of how the company works that turns its own artifacts into an executable skills file for AI.

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

My team have built a Google workspace MCP for @claudeai including Google sheets & docs. Very helpful! Can share guide/code if people are interested. Is this already common and why have neither @AnthropicAI or @GoogleWorkspace built this?

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

@PaulSandersSCP @akothari @NotionHQ This is not a serious person

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

Agree re a new external company plugging in. But in a knowledge co with @NotionHQ + Claude stack you can already get 90% there without any enforcement. Notion default for capturing all tasks, meeting notes, company docs, tickets. Claude for executing work and 2 way sync with Notion. CEO tyranny optional.

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

@trannkhiet thank you Khiet! But credit to Notion for the tools first and foremost!

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

Everyone's talking about AI. Solopreneurs are showing off impressive demos. Consultants are publishing frameworks. But nobody is showing you how to actually make AI useful at a mid to large size company.

I've been rebuilding how Brainlabs works to become AI-Native. We're on it, but it's still a journey! My team and I have spent thousands of hours building this and I'm sharing it with everyone solving for the same challenge.

In the video I will show you a practical application of AI that is actually useful using @NotionHQ and @claudeai.

To enhance people not replace them.

And in the link below there is an article breaking down in detail the architecture and what you need to do if you want to become AI-Native.

@NotionHQ @Brainlabs honestly the @NotionHQ tech is so freaking amazing, it's like a supercar from the future. We are just pressing a few pedals and trying to drive it fast!!!

[Daniel Gilbert @dangilbert]

With thanks to the amazing AI leaders I've learned so much from - follow them!

Think comments are on but for verified otherwise you get utter spam rather than thoughtful comments like yours. And it is a fair challenge.

Will be dropping a deep dive later that unpacks exactly how we're using agents and it is predominantly focussed on removing / reducing admin work - which is another way of freeing people up to do 'real' work. I personally use this extensively and have never thought that means I don't have a future role. Nor is that how I think of it for my company. Although if you are looking for an ominous subtext (it's not - we have made it very clear) - we do not want to employ people who insist on doing low value work that an admin agent could do. Hope that makes sense
