Hey Bot Squad! This week, Anthropic released Opus 5, and open-source AI continues to make powerful models more affordable and accessible than ever before. We'll discuss why leaders like NVIDIA's Jensen Huang believe open-source AI will play a major role in the future of business. We will talk about: - What Opus 5 brings to the table and how it compares to other leading AI models - Practical AI workflows you can use to save time and get more done - Which AI models offer the best value for your business today - Live Q&A with Alex to answer your AI questions - The businesses getting the best results are building workflows that continue delivering value, no matter which model they use. Every session is free, practical, and focused on helping you get more value from AI. We'd love to see you there. Sessions are 60 minutes; feel free to stay for the entire time or drop in as you wish.

Apparently Kimi 3 is a stronger model than fable in agentic coding. Nuts!! I’d like to see this in more detail though. I haven’t been impressed by GPT 5.6 SOL compared to Fable.

Hey Community! During our webinar today, @Jed Wilson mentioned a new app called Buzz. Jack Dorsey (former founder of Twitter) and Block just launched Buzz app, which is a new open-source, model-agnostic chat + agent platform built on the Nostr protocol that lets you run Slack-style collaboration and GitHub-style workflows completely under your own control with your bots! Check out this video! Have a fabulous Thursday!

One helpful way to think about Productive Bot is that OpenClaw or Hermes is the engine underneath. ProductiveBot is the business layer that makes it usable. So you don't need to know how the engine works to get value from your bot. You just tell it what you need done in a normal language. You can even give it its own personality! Here is an example...Instead of trying to figure out the technical setup for a workflow, you could say (or prompt): I keep loosing track of customer follow-ups after calls. "Help my turn my call notes into a simple follow-up process I can reuse." Your bot can help you share the steps, draft the message, organize the task list, and point out what info is even missing. Giving your bot a real-life business practice doesn't need to make you become the technical person behind it. Copy/paste this prompt to give it a try: Help me turn it into a simple workflow. Ask me any missing questions first, then give me: 1. the steps 2. what information you need from me 3. what you can draft or organize 4. what I should review before using it What tasks/workflows do you have your bot doing?

There are several unique expansion kits available for your Productive Bot. You can add a variety of ports, additional storage, support multiple displays, improve cooling and even add a UPS all in one form factor. Share pics of your setup and share what accessories you have added to enhance your Productive Bot configuration.
