In partnership with
Welcome Automaters 👋
So we have some news, and it's partly "i want to crawl into a hole and stay there" kind of news.
Yesterday, we were seconds away from hitting 'send' on the newsletter. The coffee was hot, the puns were ready, and the vibes were immaculate. And then? We accidentally deleted the entire thing.
Since it takes our tiny-but-mighty team hours to research, write, and polish these deep dives for you, we couldn't just "whip up" a replacement before your morning coffee hit. We're officially labeling yesterday as a "learning experience" (which is just corporate-speak for "we messed up big time").
We're so sorry for the radio silence.
For some Automaters, we're just content. But for many of you, we're like a good friend, coming into your inbox as you start your day. So to make it up to you, we’re dropping something we’ve been working on for a while:
WOD+!
Yup, our very first Work Out Of The Day+ video is out today, and we’re going deep on the entrepreneurial side of AI. Instead of just talking about the models, we’re looking at how people are actually building businesses and making money in this weird new world. It's less "look at this cool chatbot" and more "here is the roadmap for the AI economy."
Go give it a watch and let us know what you think!
If you love it, if you hate it, if you think we missed something, our DMs (and comments) are wide open.
Thanks again for sticking with us through our "accidentally deleted the thing" phase, and we hope you continue to greet us as friends.
Here's what we have for you today
🤖 The Most Viral (and Dangerous) AI on GitHub Right Now
The AI community has a brand new obsession: and it is shaped like a crustacean.
Moltbot (formerly known as Clawdbot) is an open-source AI agent that doesn’t just chat. It actually does stuff. We are talking about managing your calendar, checking you in for flights, and basically being the high-functioning personal assistant we have been begging Siri to become for the last decade.
Here’s The Tea:
Created by Austrian developer Peter Steinberger, this thing exploded to 70,000+ GitHub stars in just weeks. That makes it one of the fastest-growing open-source projects in history
It drove Mac Mini sales so hard people are calling it "The Clawdfather." (Yes, really. Tim Cook is probably sitting in Cupertino very, very confused right now)
Cloudflare’s stock jumped 14% because developers are using their infra to run this thing locally.
But then… the drama hit. Anthropic (the Claude makers) sent a polite "cease and desist" regarding the name Clawdbot. During the 10-second window it took to rename the project to Moltbot, chaos erupted, crypto scammers swooped in, hijacked the old accounts, and launched a $CLAWD token that hit a $16M market cap before crashing 90%. Classic.
Now, Here’s why everyone is losing their minds: Unlike your standard cloud bots, Moltbot runs directly on your hardware. It has persistent memory, proactive notifications (it texts YOU first), and full system access to your shell, browser, and files.
It can even write its own skills on the fly. As one user put it: "It’s AI as teammate, not tool." 🤝
Oh And Get This: A loyal fan showed off what this looks like in the real world. He asked his bot to grab a restaurant table for next Saturday. When the OpenTable reservation failed, the bot didn't give up. It used ElevenLabs voice tech to actually call the restaurant and book the table over the phone. 🤯
And because that wasn't enough, it also pulled a 48-hour Vibe Coding marathon without breaking a sweat.
Now, before you go full Iron Man, remember: This isn't a toy. This is a root-level agent with some serious security red flags.
The experts are already sounding the alarm:
For one, researchers found hundreds of exposed Moltbot instances leaking API keys and private messages all over the public web.
Investor Rahul Sood warned that if an agent has admin access and can be controlled via DM, an attacker could literally hijack your entire system just by sending you a WhatsApp message.
The Bottom Line: Moltbot is a massive glimpse into the "Agentic Era." It is powerful, decentralized, and deeply cool. But honestly? It is also the digital equivalent of handing a chainsaw to a toddler if you don't know how to secure your Docker containers.
Our Verdict: If you are a dev who understands terms like "Docker", VPS and "IP whitelisting," go grab your Jarvis moment. But if those words sound like a foreign language? Maybe wait for the shell to harden.
But hey, If you absolutely must try it out, do not put it on your main laptop next to your password manager. Run it on dedicated hardware with throwaway accounts. In other words: stay safe out there!
Together With ZeroSlide
Most companies are stuck in "Strategy Hell"—we’re talking endless Zoom calls, 50-page slide decks, and exactly zero code actually doing anything. It’s all "AI transformation" talk and no "AI doing the work" action.
Tak partnered with ZeroSlide because we’re allergic to the fluff. We don’t do "theoretical frameworks." We find the one thing in your business that AI can actually fix, and we build it at startup speed. If you’re tired of the "Wait and See" approach and you’re ready to actually ship something that works... let’s get to work.

🤖 AI Workout Of The Day: How to Actually Make ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude Do Stuff In Your Apps
AI Generated
It’s official: we’ve stopped talking to robots and started giving them the keys to our lives.
Yup, the "Action Era" is here folks, and it’s way bigger than just copy-pasting text. See, your AI assistant is no longer just a chatbot; it’s a remote control for your digital world.
And here’s how to make the "Big Three" actually do your digital chores:
ChatGPT:
OpenAI’s new Apps SDK has basically turned ChatGPT into a command center. You don't switch tabs anymore: you just bring the apps into the chat.
How it works: Type "@" followed by an app name (like "@Spotify, play my Focus playlist") or head to Settings > Apps and Connectors to link your accounts.
The Stack: You can connect to Spotify, Canva, Uber, DoorDash, Booking.com, and many more. Plus, the Zapier integration gives you a bridge to over 8,000 other tools.
The Catch: ChatGPT gets a front-row seat to your data. For example: If you connect Spotify, it sees your "Guilty Pleasures" playlist. So yeah, review those permissions before you click "Accept."
Google Gemini:
Google’s new Personal Intelligence feature (currently in U.S. beta) is the ultimate ecosystem flex. It doesn't just "talk" to apps: it reasons across your entire Google life.
How it works: Enable "Personal Intelligence" in settings, then use "@" to query specific apps like @Gmail or @Drive.
The Magic: Gemini can connect dots you didn't even know existed. You can ask "What are my weekend plans?" and it will cross-reference restaurant reservations in your Gmail with photos of your car’s license plate to help you book parking.
The Advantage: Since your data is already on Google’s servers, the "Context Packing" tech makes these answers hyper-fast and creepily accurate.
Claude:
Anthropic’s new interactive tools (powered by MCP Apps) are built for the "get $#!% done" crowd. This is purely about professional domination.
How it works: Go to Settings > Connectors, find the integration you want, click "Connect," and authenticate tools like Slack, Figma, and Asana.
The "Work" Flex: You can literally edit a Figma design or update a project timeline inside the Claude window. The new Research Mode can even browse the web and your internal Box files for 45 minutes to build a massive, cited report while you grab lunch.
The Health Twist: Pro/Max users in the U.S. can now connect Apple Health to track fitness data alongside their work calendar.
The Bottom Line: All three giants are racing to be your "Digital Command Center," but they are picking different lanes:
ChatGPT = The consumer marketplace for everything.
Gemini = The personal "Digital Brain" for Google loyalists.
Claude = The high-stakes workstation for professionals.
The future isn't about better answers: it's about fewer tabs. Which one are you hiring to run your life?
Try this prompt structure:
You are my [Role] Agent. Your goal is to [Specific Outcome]. Use @[App Name] to find [Context], then use @[App Name] to [Action]. Before you finalize, show me a preview and ask for my 'Go' signal.Is this your AI Workout of the Week (WoW)? Cast your vote!
