To anyone who believes MCP as a usage vector is dead on arrival, here's an adoption curve from a real product used by real people.
Today, 42% of all @TallyForms are built with AI. (Tally AI + MCP)

MCP/API will kill all GUIs GUIs will only be visualization layhers for humans to understand agent decisions But guidance and changes will come from text or voice, not clicks in a GUI
Getting more and more of that from my customers, directly or indirectly (by asking for feature parity in the API and MCP). SaaS products of the future MUST present all affordances equally to humans, agents, and machines. UI, MCP, and API have to be fully interchangeable.

My Grok Bots can't write to my CRM until they've "signed" the current process manual. Once you run several agents against the same systems, you hit a boring but real problem: process drift. One bot follows last month's rules, another improvises. My setup: a dozen Grok Bots connect to my own internal tools (CRM, outreach, bookkeeping) through MCP servers I built. So I added a skill registry right into those servers: - Every business process has exactly one versioned skill: how to log a lead, how to file a receipt, how to book a follow-up - A bot must register and acknowledge the current version before the write tools accept its calls - Bots can propose improvements, but only as a diff, like a pull request - Critical skills need my approval before a new version goes live - A process page shows which bot runs which version On the Grok Bot side this fits naturally: a bot's skills and routines are its local install of the process, and the registry is the source of truth. When a skill changes, the bots running a routine on it pick up the new version and acknowledge it before their next write. It's change management for machines, the way you'd onboard employees to a new SOP, except the API enforces it. Reliability in agentic systems comes less from smarter models and more from boring governance: versioning, approvals, audit trails.

Dumbest feature ever. IMO they will kill it again after a few of these things happening. I get it, in the US you're a sitting duck in your Tesla when someone decides to attack you with his automatic rifle, but this can't be the solution
First video of a driver (accidentally) using the new emergency drive away feature. Pretty wild to watch this guy dismiss all the warnings and prompts... Curious how much damage was done to the car and charger. Credit to @JLeshnick for the video

People whine about IT security in combination with AI. But imo that's not a problem, because thanks to multi-agent systems like Grok Bot, in the future everything will be fixed almost in real time.

I run two companies on a team of Grok Bots. Not one chatbot. More than a dozen specialists. At Reruption (applied-AI consultancy) and getease (AI customer support for Shopify), my daily operations run on Grok Bot. Each bot has exactly one job: - A CRM bot that checks lead replies in Outlook and LinkedIn every night - An outreach bot that runs mailbox warmup and sending infrastructure - A bookkeeping bot that files receipts and posts a daily transaction table to Teams - A DevOps bot that audits my self-hosted infrastructure - A security bot that reads advisories every week - A chief of staff that preps every meeting - Sales, marketing, a pitch-deck creator, and one project bot per client project Why split them? Same reason you don't hire one person for sales, bookkeeping and ops. Narrow context means fewer mistakes. Every Grok Bot has its own connectors, its own memory and its own routines. The bookkeeping bot can't touch outreach. The DevOps bot reads before it's allowed to write. The part that surprised me most: they talk to each other. When my legal-entity bot needed a document signed, it messaged my back-office bot, which already knew how. I never explained it twice. Shared memory means a preference I tell one bot ("plain-text emails, always with my signature") applies to all of them. The lesson isn't that agents can do the work. It's how much of running a business is just keeping track: follow-ups, filings, renewals, prep. That's exactly what a team of Grok Bots is good at. Don't build one super-agent. Build a team with clear roles and clear permissions. #GrokBot #AIAgents #AIforBusiness #Founders

Habe das Gefühl, dass sobald jemand "stochastische Papageien" sagt die breite Öffentlichkeit ihm oder ihr direkt Vorschusslorbeeren gönnt 😂
Deutschland lässt sich in der KI-Politik von Akademikerinnen wie Katharina Zweig beraten – Mitglied der Enquete-Kommission KI, Leiterin des „Algorithm Accountability Labs”. Sie brandmarkt Sprachmodelle im Grunde als stochastische Papageien ohne echtes Verstehen, fordert erstmal Regulierung und Prüfung, und sitzt dabei im akademischen Elfenbeinturm. Nach eigenen Aussagen nutzt sie die Pro-Versionen der großen Labs nicht, weil die Ergebnisse „nicht gut genug sind, um dafür zu bezahlen“. Genau diese Stimmen prägen die deutsche Diskussion und Politik. @FlorianGallwitz

It seems relevant that AI memory is not even close to solved. I mean real memory, like a human or animal has. A long stack of .md files is not it.

Sexist bullshit. Why would you make a generalizing theory about societal development based on some chatgpt opinion. Are you mentally handicapped and sexist or only the latter?
Love Is Blind perfectly sums up modern dating. You’ve got 5s rejecting 7.5–8s because they genuinely believe they deserve better. Dating apps/unlimited male attention have absolutely fried people’s perception of their own market value. Hoeflation is at the worst it’s ever been.

Why is nobody talking about what an amazing godsend AI is to handle 100s of little updates daily? I'm sick of the fear mongers at this point. I was a pro sys-admin for twenty years. Still manage systems 10 yrs later. Updates suck. Always have. AI makes it so much easier.

Since we see the PHP fixes being back-ported by extremely helpful volunteers (and their agents) from 8.2, the oldest supported version, all the way to 5.x from 10 years ago, maybe now is the time to re-evaluate back-porting ALL security fixes with the help of AI system, right?

when you see an “expert” in the media talk about a topic you’re quite familiar with, it really makes you question all their other “experts” for all the other topics

21 years ago I named "Reddit" and everyone said it was a horrible name, but I insisted one day people would say "I read it on reddit" and used my CEO-privilege to overrule everyone + kept the name. Now the company twitter account (unbeknownst to them) is making the joke. Heh.
I'd tell you a joke, but you've probably already Reddit.
