Explaining AI like it’s 1974… because sometimes it still feels like it.

Jeanette works across WhatsApp, Slack, Telegram, Gmail and more.

In practice, you just send a message.

@garyseconomics 2 things:
1. You talk about all time highs as if it’s rare for markets to hit. They hit it all the time. That’s just the nature of a world where the s&p has seen 7.5% growth annualized over 100 years.
2. You said we’re in a huge economic crisis. We’re actually not…

@jonhainstock @helloitsolly @MicroConf @mynameis_davis Great, yeah I will aim to attend too 👍👍

[Richard Francis @rich186]

@helloitsolly @jonhainstock @MicroConf @mynameis_davis This looked like a great event! Will aim to join the next one. Much difference between US & Europe events? I tend to gravitate to US with these things as I find the atmosphere way more energizing

Awesome! Yeah you can ask it to connect to any service (try one that has a token based api such as Notion, Wordpress, Airtable, etc). It’ll build the skill on-the-fly.

However yep, for integrations such as Gmail it’s a little more tricky as I need to register and verify the app each time. Will keep you updated on that!

[Richard Francis @rich186]

@Cherif No worries - lmk if you hit any more limits. How are you finding it so far?

[Richard Francis @rich186]

@Cherif Absolutely! I just bumped you to the equivalent of the "Pro" plan (6M input/1.2M output, 750 credits). Should keep you going for a while 🚀

[Richard Francis @rich186]

@Cherif Will do! And no it’s not forked, it’s my own thing. Might open source it at some point.

[Richard Francis @rich186]

@Cherif @paulg @Austen Also just fixed a bunch of issues that made your experience sub optimal ✅

[Richard Francis @rich186]

@Cherif @paulg @Austen Thanks for flagging @Cherif 🙏

I just submitted the app for verification, so that should be working soon.

I haven't "officially" launched it yet (will make some noise next week). Any feedback at all, please let me know.

And HMU if you need more tokens!

Cool things it can do right now:

- No need for skills; it can ingest API docs from any service and build its own connectors on demand
- Set up as many agents as you’d like: they can collab with teams in Slack, 1-on-1 via WhatsApp/telegram, or even with customers via Intercom
- Agents are context-aware and can communicate with internal (teams) and external (customers) simultaneously (“how should I answer this support query, and should I remember the response for next time?”)
- Task scheduling, deep research, image gen & editing, browsing, and much more.

Onboarding is seamless (just message it). Requests are distributed across many frontier models depending on topic and load.

Beautiful weather here in the French Alps (esp. for April) - one of my favorite places on earth!
