All right, good morning, good afternoon,

and good evening. Welcome back to

another Clear Mud live stream. Today, I

want to focus I need to stop hitting

that button. I want to focus today's

episode around how people are making

money with Grockbot. Uh we are going to

try a few of these tactics ourselves.

And who knows, maybe we come up with

some brilliant idea to make some money

on the side while we're learning, while

we're experimenting. Um, so let me first

this Grockbot system that I set up

actually in a video just a few days ago.

I'm turning into our team bot. Oh, I

need to

I'm turning into our team bot. So

instead, I want to sign out to my other

account and I want to clean up that

other account and use that other account

for experiments for these live streams.

So, let's go ahead and log into that

other account. Give me one second. And

we're going to first start off with

start off with some cleanup here. And

then we'll uh still trying to log me

back in. It's kind I wish there was an

easy way to toggle between accounts.

That's a bummer. So, I got to log out of

that other cursor account and sign back

in.

Let's reopen the link.

Oh, I hit it preemptively. Now continue.

Sign in.

All right. Open Grogbot. So, this is our

original one. I need to finish migrating

the clear mud bots, but we can keep the

chief of staff. We can keep these chiefs

here. As you can see, I started

experimenting with a money pod and a

database factory as well as an

experiment team. So, we're going to keep

those, but we're going to delete

everything else because I've already

migrated the X team. I've already

migrated the housekeeping. Um,

keeper was actually something fun. I was

joined my first dynasty fantasy football

league and uh I thought let me ask some

questions.

And I don't know how I feel about it,

but uh let's let's do some cleanup.

All right, so let's do some cleanup. Go

ahead and delete the X team. That's

successfully migrated. Uh delete

housekeeping.

And we're going to keep the database

factory. We're going to keep the money

pod. We're going to keep the experiment

uh team or section rather. And

and then we're going to keep Codex and

Claude. But everything else,

oh, prep me a handoff markdown file for

the clear mud team. Uh, as we are going

to finish migrating that over. You can

actually delete partnerships that's

already migrated. Uh, but water, mud,

and sky, we still need to hand off that

agent data, that context, those

instructions, how those operate, uh,

into a markdown file. And then once

you've created that, go ahead and

cleanse this system, please.

All right, just starting off with

sending off a big prompt here.

I'm wondering if we should change our

chief of staff for this. Uh, ah, we'll

keep it Elon Musk.

Yo, what's up, Franc? How we doing

today?

There we go. I should probably though

move this video for Grockbot because it

covers feel like an important part of

the app.

So, let's grab that unlock. Move that

over to the right.

And perfect.

Keep that over there.

How's everyone doing today though

otherwise? And what's up with that

background music? Um, but yeah, what

inspired me, if I wasn't clear at the

start of this live stream is I was

watching this one here from 6 days ago

from Greg Eisenberg, and he's had this

guy on the on the show before. This guy

makes money off of creating database

websites. Database websites work like

this. You provide value. You create a

database and you focus on getting as

many visitors as possible. Then you

monetize that traffic, right? you

monetize that traffic in the form of

promoting certain tools,

whether brands pay for you or not.

Essentially, ad space. Um, there's

there's more to it than that, but that's

just a quick TLDDR of what a database

factory or a database website is. Um,

and this sent me down a rabbit hole of

what if we create our own team to do

that. So, today's episode is going to be

all focused on that. It's not going to

be focused on how I'm using it for clear

mud, how I'm using it for the team. Um,

we'll do another video about that. But

now, as you can see, I have two separate

systems. One for clear mud and team, and

then one for experiments and

demonstrations and just random personal

bot use. Um, that's how I'm kind of

separating things now.

Yo, what's up, Mark? Nice. Nice. Are you

just dipping your toes? Have you created

your first uh your first bot yet?

Listen, what one tip I have for

beginners, don't worry about a chief of

staff. When I was first playing with

Grockbot, I was just creating bots. I

was creating bots, having them do

things, and just learning. That's the

best way to start. Um, it's it can get

very

distracting if you try to follow

somebody else's advice too soon before

you find a way to utilize it best for

yourself, your life, your business,

whatever it is you want to uh build out

your Grockbot team or system for. uh

that's unique to you, right? I think

getting ideas from other people is very

important. Um it's amazing. Uh somebody

in our community was talking about this,

but since January, since my OpenClaw

days, right? And by the way, I still use

OpenClaw every day. I never liked having

individual channels to chat with all my

agents. I just wanted one executive

assistant who handles everything else.

But back in those early days, everyone

was creating these mechanisms to

communicate with each individual agent.

And it's just like it it made no sense

to me. Now with Grockbot, it it seems

like everyone's now routing through this

one agent does all. It's it's funny.

It's just funny.

I can't delete seats. All right.

Cannot delete rows either. Interesting.

So, we'll go ahead and delete it

ourselves.

Let's delete,

delete, delete,

delete.

Yo, what's up, Derek? How we doing

today?

All

right, that hopefully

hard to refresh this.

We can delete housekeeping as well.

And I just wanted to make sure add

housekeeping to the list. I can't

remember if we created a handoff doc for

the other system. Um, I think we did,

but just double check before I delete

that one.

I've already deleted X.

And then we can delete partnerships

because we already took care of that.

All right.

Wait, are we not live? Oh, we are. Woo.

I I was previewing my YouTube video on

uh another tab and it just showed the

thumbnail, but it showed 12 watching now

and it made no sense to me. I had to

refresh that

housekeeping. All right, let's download

that. Throw that on our desktop. We'll

hand that over to the other system uh

when I go back into it after stream.

All right, keep that. Keep that.

Yeah, you know, Grockbots's hitting when

uh normie friends of mine are hitting me

up about Grock about Grockbot. Also,

Omari, my goodness, I swear like that

dude is on a terror right now. Everybody

and their mothers are talking about

Omari and Framework Laptops.

I have nothing against them at all. Um,

it's just the power of podcasts. It

started off with, I believe it was the

Senra podcast and that was weeks ago,

but then he recently got on the Lex

Freedman podcast and I think a few

others and he's just been on an absolute

tear to where I now have normie friends

saying I'm buying a framework laptop and

I'm installing Omari. I'm like, you do

understand that's just Arc Linux, right?

Uh, nothing against it, but um

I'm curious to see if that is a fad or

not, right? Um,

very curious. But soon as Elon's done

archiving and preparing these handoff

docs, I'm going to finish cleaning up

this team and then we're going to dig

into what I've done so far with the

database factory. I actually did deploy

uh a super basic version one uh based on

the type of clients I work with. I

figured why not build a database of

resources uh for that industry for free,

right? Um

that come from two primary sources,

research painpoints on social media, but

also what I'm building out for those

clients as well. what types of agents

and bots that we're creating uh for

those clients without of course

revealing client data.

Um so I'm very excited to show you that

one. I'll give you a little teaser

though. If you go to uh AI agents

construction, this is the super version

one of the database that's already live

and uh Grockbot handled all of this for

me. This team handled it for me. It's

really awesome.

All right, let's go make sure all this

handoff doc. So, he's still working.

Let's just give it a moment. Why is that

video or music cutting out? It needs to

playlist.

So my site I'm working on rates, videos,

hosts, guests. Bill Hor got the

interesting interesting.

So what I understand is your site just

rates long form versus

podcast videos. Trying to understand

that a little bit better. I can create

shorts now. Faceless. Amazing. Way

faster with Grockbot. Hey, let's go. Oh,

I'm happy to hear it, man. Can't wait to

see what you do. Share the channel and

the growth as as as you grow. I'd love

to to kind of see

what you build.

So, we're going to delete housekeeping.

I'm wondering if we should create a a

trading bot. What do you think about

this, Derek? You want to help us create

this live? I feel like that would be

insane if we can get that working. I'm

happy to fund it. Uh, I think we should

do a prediction markets trading bot if

anything or trading bot team.

I still wish we could see what he's

doing like real time, line by line, tool

calling, etc.

Think we're going to unpin Sky because

we're getting rid of him.

All right.

Let's go. Looking forward to seeing it,

man.

Now, in the meantime, let's watch this

video because I didn't finish watching

it,

>> which is helpful.

>> Yeah. So, to be less involved, but you

you really have to run you have to be in

the weeds with the team for a couple

days, a couple weeks before you can run

it autonomously. And you do that with

the routines, like we said. Uh, and you

do it with having agents review work

that you you teach them how to review

like you. So a useful thing could be so

say Greg like I gave all this feedback

on these posts that it did. I could say

okay take what we did in this thread and

turn it into a skill uh that another

agent can use when it's reviewing. So it

reviews exactly like Billy, right?

>> That's exactly what you would do. And so

if you want to see do you want to see

how the newsletter actually works? Do

you do you want to talk about like the

business case?

>> Yeah, I think yeah, absolutely.

>> Okay. So

>> I do I do because I think that

there's thousands of potential

newsletter businesses that could be

built and run with Grockbot.

Yeah, thousands for sure.

So this is this is a local newsletter.

Um, but I've run newsletters in tech and

sports for different clients and

basically all you need to get started is

a niche and where to get the best

information to to put in the newsletter,

right? So, if you're really into I I

don't know, board games and you know all

the best board game subreddits and the

best board game review sites and and

message boards, then you can make a

newsletter where you aggregate and

editorialize.

>> So, I think a lot of people are going to

watch listen to this and really like the

whole agent team idea is going to click

in their heads.

>> Yes. Um, I think that there's tons of

different business ideas that you can

build on top of this. You know, one of

them is local newsletters.

What else could people be building?

>> Any type of new any type of newsletter

doesn't need to be local. Uh, probably

would be easier not to get the ball

rolling on one that's not local. That's

a whole different can of worms. Um,

Shopify. I'm I've got a diff a separate

Grockbot account that I paid the $200

for because I'm so crazy about keeping

the contact separate and it's just

Shopify. And so I'm training it to be uh

to use the Shopify developer tools and

to

>> source products. I have a sourcing

agent, a developer agent, and like an

email agent right now. Um, and I'm still

setting those up, but Grockbot does an

outstanding job of researching products,

sourcing products. Uh, and so I'll just

I what I would do is say I have an idea

for this product. Um, I have I really

like this company and its product. I

want to do something that's in in the

same category, uh, similar price point.

and it knew to go look at import Yeti,

which like can just look at people's

Shopifies and tell you like exactly what

they're sourcing.

>> All right, let's uh let's just double

check everything here.

Hey, I wanted to touch base. What's the

purpose of this team, this experiment

pod? What are we doing here?

All

right, I just wanted to chat here in the

team channel. Uh, how's the money pod

looking? It looks like uh we started

building this out, but it's been stale

for 5 days now.

What's our goals?

What's the team built for? Give me a

TLDDR.

All right. So when I go through these

experiments, also keep in mind that this

account has been laying dormant. Uh

we're just reviving it right now. So

database factory.

Hey, I just wanted to get a pulse check

of this team.

Where do we stand? What do you need from

me? Um, I think we should also create

a markdown file showing me our current

status as far as

the original plan we created for this. I

know we're live. I know you're updating

with new roles. Looks like you updated

yesterday, you updated today. So, you're

actually building things out.

But, you know, we need a plan for the

future. We need a plan for revenue.

All right. And yeah, me personally, I

love having these separate team

channels. Um, that way Elon's in the mix

so he gets the context. Uh, and I don't

just have to message Elon up here and

worry that the more I message him, the

more he will, you know. Oh, that's what

you're talking about. I just put it

together. You're talking about Billy

Horl here. I don't know why I thought it

was like some other podcaster

how he did in the video. So if it's an

interview it raises his question it's

push back hype BS and then same for the

interviewer. Nice. Nice

interesting prediction markets like

Palshi my agent ran 10,000 tests and the

best ones were esports and weather

believe it or not. So betting on weather

and esports events or outcomes. Yo,

what's up, Will? Completely new with

zero tech skills. No, you are not. I

don't think you are. I think that your

willingness to learn this stuff is the

advantage, right? Um it's never been

easier to build things, right? All you

have to do is have a vision or or a bit

of curiosity and just start asking

questions. They don't even have to be

the right questions. Just start asking

questions. I would say, you know, I said

this at the beginning of the live stream

from a beginner standpoint. Don't go and

create some crazy team. Create one bot.

Test it, one use case, then expand, then

get the idea of creating this chief of

staff, right? I don't think everybody

needs to start with that type of setup.

I think starting as simply as possible

and just building one thing, one

automation, one checker. You could do

something surface level, some email

related work, automations, etc. But

that's all too surface level for me.

You'll never catch me creating a video

or, you know,

telling you to do that via, you know,

uh,

I want to choose my words carefully. Um,

you'll never see me hyping up the basic

standard workflows uh that everybody

seems to be spitting out and copying

right now. Yo, what's up? How we doing

today? Congrats. That's awesome, Trout.

It's good to hear. Congrats.

Let's go.

All right,

let's go check back with our team here.

Okay.

So, let's go check on it because I want

to give it some feedback here.

We need to do a better job at uh

ready today works with supervision.

Okay.

I see. So that navigates through

jobs, president, owner,

this is publishing, next project

manager,

and then there's specific jobs and use

cases per. Okay.

Feel like we can improve on this quite a

bit though

for collaboration. Yes. Yes. Uh

collaboration with humans. Definitely.

Currently growing my Grotbot team to

automate my residential real estate

business. I have a ton of agents and

created my own system and process over

the last few days and slowly automating.

Right on. Coach Clay, that's good to

hear.

And correct me if I'm wrong. Did you

just start with one thing before you

then start feeding more responsibilities

to your team?

Yo, good afternoon, Anthony. How we

doing today? I'm afraid to touch

Grockpot after the whole Grock build

code theft thing. Yeah,

it's uh

How long ago was that?

How long ago was that? I'm not sure. I

remember that being a a topic of

conversation, but

I mean, look at the look at it this way.

Didn't um Hugging Face get hacked

recently and then they were just

acquired for what is it 12 billion or 17

billion? I can't remember the number. Um

so these types of vulnerabilities aren't

necessarily a bad thing. Sure, they're

bad in the moment. Um but they get

fixed, they get resolved, they get

addressed rather quickly. So,

ah, that's right. That's right. Um, oh,

you're talking about it creating a copy

of private repositories if I remember

correctly. Right. I believe they

answered that. I I can't remember what

it was, but listen, you know, I I

operate based off of one simple rule. U

there's no more privacy if you're using

a smartphone. Like, this is not a

conspiracy. if you're using a

smartphone, if you're on the internet,

um there's just no more privacy. So, to

me, I I'm not as concerned about those

things anymore because, you know,

something that's super private, I would

never hand off to an agent first and

foremost, right? Like, um so I think

it's just understanding that we live in

a world where uh that aspect of things.

I mean,

yeah. Yeah. No, and I totally

understand, right? I totally understand.

and they were using it as training data,

but it wasn't every private repository.

It was specific workflows. It was

specific um harnesses that would do

this. Um but it wasn't Grock as a whole

that was doing this. I think it was a

specific like um pipeline of using Grock

that was causing that to happen.

I mean, a number of different ways. Um

a number of different ways. I can sit

here and tell you that Grockbot has

closed some sponsorship deals. Uh I can

sit here and tell you that Grockbot has

gone in and uh cancelled subscriptions I

didn't know I had. Right? These are a

lot of the common use cases in videos

you're seeing right now. Uh but what

this live stream is all about is let's

build a team that's actually going to

make us money. And it may not make us

money today, but it's going to build out

those automations and those bots for us

to then make us money in the long term.

Um, and this one here, this database

factory team is this is version one, but

I'm building a database factory

essentially, uh, for AI agents in the

construction industry.

I have two chief bots, but they are all

next to bots that work in parallel.

They're on the left side of your menu.

Do you think there's a way to organize

them as if only in a circle in a bubble

and when you click there the bots of

each of the main bots can be broken

down? I don't know if I'm going to be

able to do that. Um trying to So here's

what I personally like to do. Let me

maybe this will help you. Um

I have pinned agents here. Obviously I

removed Sky. Sky was another one. But

this is the chief of staff who's

essentially routed into every team

channel. you see here. So, when I start

talking with the team here,

Elon's routed in, has context. Uh, I can

go in here, message him, and he'll know

exactly what happened in the team

channel for the database factory. Same

goes for here. Same goes for here,

right? Uh, if you're thinking you want

like a team of chiefs, then what I would

probably do is either

still have one master orchestrator uh,

and then create a Chiefs. I need to

rename this. These are actually

harnesses.

Um

maybe re, you know, create a new section

with all of your chief of staffs. Uh and

then create a team channel with them so

that you can communicate with all of

those head of departments in one

channel. Uh that might be the move if

I'm understanding your build correctly.

you. Yeah, you don't need to have an X

account to use Grock. Um,

yeah, you don't need to have an X

account to use Grock. You can sign up a

number of different ways.

Nice. Nice. There we go. Hey, don't be

ashamed. You're testing. You're

experimenting, right? Like we learn what

works for us and what doesn't work for

us. Um, I paid for Replet early on, well

over a year ago, right? I was paying for

Replet, uh, dabbling in cloud code and

then as soon as it clicked, I think I

believe I made a video about this, but I

calculated how much I was spending per

month on Replet versus how much I would

spend equivalently if I just took that

money into Cloud Code and paid for a

bigger subscription. and I was getting

more usage out of it. The only negative

per se between the two comparing was

Replet made it really easy to deploy

right and host. I have a network

engineer background. The DevOps side of

things is no problem for me. The hosting

side of things is no problem for me. So,

um, Cloud Code was a no-brainer. But

now, I mean, all you got to do is ask an

agent or ask a bot and they'll they'll

guide you through the steps if they

don't do it for you. Uh, making it so

easy. Like, you don't need to have the

background that I have to host things

and deploy things yourselves anymore.

Uh, that is just that's just gone. You

just need to know how to ask the

question. That's it.

Yeah. Bots as needed when the skill or

process calls for it. Yep. Interesting.

Derek, should we build one? You want to

help us build one right now?

Main difference between Hermes agent and

Grockbot? Well, Grockbot,

there's a couple of differences. One is

open source and one can be completely

hosted on your own hardware, whereas one

is not open source and one cannot be

hosted on your own hardware. So, you're

at the mercy of Space X data centers.

I doubt they would ever go offline,

right? But that's like one of the big

differences right there. Another one is

with Grockbot, you're limited to using

Grock 4.6 or just Grock in general. Uh

whereas with Hermes, you could connect

your Grock, you can connect your OpenAI,

your Claude, whatever harness you want.

Now, I'm going to put an asterisk on

that comparison because there are

workarounds to connect your codecs and

Claude subscriptions within Grockbot.

Now, this bot itself is still powered by

Grock, but the underlying work it does

routes through the CLI. Whether you set

up Peekaboo on your Mac, assuming you're

with a Mac, um it'll just invoke codeex

or Claude in the CLI, do the work,

report back, and then the bot itself is

still powered by Grock. But fun little

workarounds to use uh other models

within Grockbot. I have this working

better on my other system that I created

on the demo which has turned it into my

primary. But nevertheless, fun little

workarounds.

Uh VPS to Grockbot, you don't need to.

It's not self-hosted. It's hosted by

SpaceX. You don't VPS is out of the

question. If you're talking about

Hermes, yes. Yes.

I got to run out for a bit. Daughter's

kindergarten. Oh man. Busy busy. Hey,

right on. Nice. We can always do

something uh on a live stream next week,

too.

So, I hope you have a a great rest of

the day. I hope it's an easy day. I hope

the teachers don't give you a hard time

for whatever reason.

I don't know what it's like with the

whole back to school stuff, but

it's funny you say kindergarten open

house. I've never heard it's like, are

they becoming real estate agents? What

is going on here?

Sorry, I had to mute there.

Oh, that's right. I created tags in our

mailbox and created aliases.

Yeah. So, what happens daily right now?

What happens weekly and what happens

monthly? What can we do to improve?

Because the front-end UI leaves much to

be desired for. So, we got to we got to

put in some work there. But, I'm just

trying to get a pulse checker on,

you know, what's happening daily,

weekly, and monthly at the moment.

And what's our goal? I'm pretty sure we

defined it, but I want you to tell me

what's our goal for this project.

Uh, this pod sells one thing.

Interesting.

Interesting. Really, I could have sworn

that the money pod was something else.

So the money pot it looks like we are

I see.

So what's currently configured? What's

our goal? And what's configured daily,

weekly, and monthly right now.

This is what happens when you build too

much.

We do a lot of experimenting here on the

channel though, so it's all a part of

the process. The one that I know is

going to stick is the database factory.

We're still experimenting here. We might

delete these teams and then just start

from scratch.

Wait a second.

To find one clear mud product a month,

not to ship every morning. I hunt what's

actually moving on X last 30 days pulls

what people are saying architect turns

it the pain into a pack GTM or go to

market bot says whether anyone would pay

water and mud only jump in if we pursue

ah

okay

okay so I I think we need to shift this

because we're moving clear mud related

responsibilities to another system so I

wonder if we just don't simplify this

into a

listen for pain points,

create a prototype,

create a go to market strategy, and then

present me with that output one new

product every single day. And then I

choose whether or not we want to move

things down the pipeline, right? Also,

what do we have configured as far as

routines are concerned within this team

when it comes to daily, weekly or

monthly routines?

Just know that Grockbot is essentially

Elon's digital optimus.

Feel like he's learning from all the

Grockpot usage to eventually release

agents that actually do Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, for sure. Yo, what's up, Jordan?

Hey, no problem for me.

I mean, one account got close to 100%,

but I was very, very mindful of it. Uh,

and then we got that that reset two days

ago, which is awesome. Which is awesome.

Well, I think we're going to see more of

those personally. Um, but I'm I'm on

average to spend about

10%

maybe 12% a day, which leaves me with

some extra percentage. Uh, and that's on

my Clear Mud system. On this system,

it's completely separate. So, I have two

different Grockbot systems right now

that I'm testing with.

One I actually built out in that video

from a few days ago, which is now turned

into my primary system for ClearBud. So,

I'm not going to demo that one too much

more moving forward. Uh, I'm primarily

going to demo this account here. That

other one's running off of a Super Gro

Heavy and this one's running off of

Cursor Ultra.

So, we actually experimented with this

on Wednesday's live stream and uh we

were following a certain list of hacks

that were recommended on X. Um,

yes, it could do it, but it's not

natively built in. You have to do you

have to take a lot of steps to to pull

that off

and you have to set up a a phone number

based off of how we did it at least. Can

it send voice notes in chat? Let's ask.

Hey, if I send you voice notes, can you

send me voice notes?

Hey, if I send you voice notes, can you

send me voice notes?

What's going on here? I'm noticing a

weird little bug is when I try to record

something here.

Hey, I'm curious. The microphone button

on this,

you know, field where I message you

doesn't work. Uh, I've tried both ways.

Also, can you send me voice notes? Can

we send voice notes back and forth? I'm

very curious.

Okay. Right on. Yeah. Hope hope it's

helpful.

I already answered this. I think so. I

think so. I think it's worth an

experiment for sure if you have the

budget, right? If it's not going to hurt

you, if it's no skin off your back, then

yeah, why not?

Cursor Ultra is uh $200 a month.

Yeah, exactly. Exactly. The reason I

justified what I'm spending is that

super Grock heavy account in itself,

it's already paying for itself. It's

already paying for itself with what it's

doing for me. Uh it's freeing up my

time, which is awesome. This other one

is more of a business expense for Clear

Mud to experiment, to demo. This is for

you guys more than it's for me, right?

Um, so if you need something built

specifically, if you want to see how to

build something, just ask. I'm happy to

build something live showing you the

steps that I would take.

Yeah, I think they are right. Maybe I

can't remember. Let's go take a look.

I want to say if we go to bot

believe they shared yeah all super grock

plus cursor pro plus and cursor team

subscribers now have access.

So, Super Grock Plus. Uh, how do we

easily get to

go to grock.com?

Looks like I'm actually signed in with a

different one here.

Where are the plans?

Grock plans. Super Grock.

I'm pretty sure it's the $30 a month

plan if I'm not mistaken.

Oh, maybe it is 100. Okay.

H interesting.

Ah, very nice. Very nice.

You can do it from a laptop. They don't

have an Android app for it yet, which I

am bummed about.

I am very bummed about that because I'm

an Android first mobile user, but then I

do have this Mac as a

computer here as my daily driver for

creative.

Interesting how our music keeps pausing

in the background.

Go back to flow music.

Do I have to go in here?

No. Let's go back. I think we should be

able to play the playlist as a whole.

And we just hit

There we go. I think what it might be

doing is it might be shuffling down to

the end and then ends right here. So,

let's turn off shuffle and just do

automatically re-re replay.

I cannot send voice notes back. No audio

tool on the seat. I send text. Okay.

The other org has outbone voice to you.

That's a different machine. Yeah.

Got it. Got it.

You know, I'd love to will I really

wanted to have um because I'm not a

trader first and foremost.

I really wanted Derek to help to to

build it with us live because he has

that experience.

Um, I'm a, you know, I really stand

behind making sure you have the

experience to build something. Uh,

otherwise you're just going to build a

super surface level trading bot that's

not going to really make you any money.

I think from a trader's perspecting ha

perspective having that foundational

knowledge of how to trade of

if then statements of certain criteria

right to track you're going to be far

more successful in creating a trading

bot with that foundational knowledge and

configuration but just telling it to say

hey I just gave you $50 on this MetaMask

account I want you to go to this

prediction market start making us some

money that's not enough. It's most like

nine times out of 10 it's going to lose

money, right? Um but

if you give it specific tasks, specific

routines to do certain research, a

specific niche to target, uh I think

that's when you become more profitable.

I think it looks like we're going to

build that next week because Derek had

to take off. Dererick's a busy man. He's

got like what is it 17 kids? No, I'm

joking. He's got seven though, which is

a lot. Um, so he had to take off. But to

answer your will, I think next week I'm

going to DM Derek to see if we can't uh

get him on a live to to essentially just

build a trading bot live. That would be

a fun one.

I want to go back and focus on this

database factory. Let's see.

Interesting. It set a goal for 100k a

month by year end from that. What does

that mean? By year end from that year

end from that. From what?

Where is it getting that from? Hey, I'm

with it. I'm not I'm not mad at that

goal right there, you know.

All right.

messaging claude for contractor

blueprint spec and codeex to ship it. So

it looks like they are working right

now.

Um

passing that to Claude. Okay. So I mean

based off of this original prompt, I

didn't even tell them to do anything. I

just said the front end UI leaves much

to be desired for. So, we have to put in

some work there. And they got started

off of

prompting our uh our bots that handle

the codeex and cloud harnesses. Awesome.

Awesome.

So, let's go check in on Money Pod.

Interesting. Really, I could have sworn

we had money pod with something else.

Goal one paid to install bid desk.

That's me followup.

Got it.

Oh, interesting. I kind of want to start

from scratch with this team here.

Yeah, I think we're going to trash this

experiment and start from scratch.

Enjoy your last few moments.

Oh, I cracked myself up. I'll let them

enjoy their last few moments. Let's see

what they say as bots.

Yes. New loop. Listen for pain. Ship a

prototype. Write the go to market

strategy.

Put it on the walk-in tab. One new

product every day. You decide what

continues. Got it.

All right. So, I'm also curious as to

why we're using water and mud. Those are

our old Clear Mud team members. Uh we

primarily use the team we've built here

plus our Codeex and Claude bots um that

route work through each respective model

whether you're choosing Opus or Fable or

GPT Soul or GPT Terra Luna etc etc. All

that work gets routed through them.

See what did they say?

Enjoy your last few moments. Come on,

say something.

I guess Elon's the only one answering

right now. Um,

yeah, we're just going to delete. Going

to delete. Fun experiment. Let's clean

things up in this system.

All right, I went ahead and deleted the

money pod team.

That was an experiment. And uh

we want to go back to the drawing board

there. So, also I'm noticing that

sometimes mud and sky and water are kind

of spliced into certain team channels.

That shouldn't be the case. They're a

clear mud team. We're handing that team

off to um to our other system, right?

So, I'm getting ready to delete those

agents shortly.

You know what? We might keep Mud because

didn't we build a Opus clone here? We

did. We did.

But I've already added that repo.

Did we add this mud clip? Feel like we

do. Let's go check.

Mud clip.

Is it mud dash clip?

Give me a link to this uh repo, please.

Yeah. If anything, I'll keep mud and

I'll move him into

actually rename this one engineering.

Move mud down there

because he was more of our engineer than

anything.

I'm going to remove that tag for now.

And then let's go ahead and create a

channel for Elon. Elon Mud, Claude, and

Codex

team chat or team channel.

Move that up here. That way they all

have their own way to communicate. And

then this is one we need to archive and

delete shortly.

Yeah. So, what I'm ending up doing here

is I moved mud into engineering. Um, so

we're going to delete and archive. Well,

first we'll archive, then we'll delete

water and sky shortly because those

responsibilities we're handing off to

the other system.

Dang, Mr. NY,

what angle did they pick? Who

is it? Nice.

I have not uh I have not experimented

with uh GLM 5.3 yet,

but are you still using Hermes and

OpenClaw? Yes, I'm not using them with

Grockbot. I'm using them independently.

So, I'm going to be honest. Hermes I

deploy Hermes agent systems for clients

um

because of how stable it has been since

day one and reliable. That's why I chose

Hermes Agent. I have my own Hermes

agent, but it doesn't do much aside from

I don't give it too many

responsibilities for for clear mode as a

whole. My openclaw setup on the other

hand that I originally built out, you

know, end of December, beginning of

January, I still use daily. I still rely

on daily. Um, yeah, I still, long story

short, yes, I still use Open Claw. I

still use Hermes. I still use Buzz. Um,

but Buzz is more for collabs now because

I want to use the collaboration feature

of bringing in other humans and agents

and those are its responsibilities right

now. Open Claw's day-to-day clear mud

ops. Grockbot now is I'm giving it some

responsibilities, but it's not going to

outright replace OpenClaw or Hermes for

me personally. Um, but I am, you know,

it it it's going to be doing a lot for

me in the future. But is it gonna

outright replace OpenClaw? I don't think

so. I'm too much of a a techie and an

experimentter to to just trash something

like that, trash something that's fully

in your control on your own hardware,

right? Sure, you run the risk of that

hardware crashing, etc., etc., but

that's the type of person I am, right?

So, I'm never going to trash my open

class setup, personally. Um,

and never say never. You never know what

happens in 10 years, 15 years, but for

the foreseeable future, like I don't I

may make content around all these new

solutions that drop. Um, but I'm not

like these other guys who were saying I

now migrated everything to these other

systems. Uh, if that were true, then

they never really utilized those systems

in the first place. uh because m keep

continuously migrating from system to

system to system shows how little you've

actually done in those systems uh in my

opinion right because

if you if you're truly relying on that

tech uh the amount of time it's going to

take to migrate from one system to the

next I is insane is insane like um I

don't know I'll stop talking there I'll

stop talking there

yeah this right here This is this is a

great use case, great little workaround.

Um, but you're still at the end of the

day using Grockbot, right? Hermes does

have its own bot feature. If you guys

know, Hermes blatantly copied Grockbot

within hours. I feel like within their

desktop app, it was hilarious to watch.

Nice. Nice.

Yeah. So, this was my original thing is

Grockbot is primarily going to focus

around X growth for clear mud and being

more consistent across socials. Uh,

primarily X, right? I'm giving it more

social first responsibilities than

anything. I'm not giving it YouTube

responsibilities because I have certain

automations in place with my open cloth

setup that are just tried and true. They

work. I don't even have to think about

it. All these live streams, they've been

automated uh when it comes to

post-prouction. So, you'll notice within

24 to 48 hours after all of our live

streams since the beginning of the year,

right since I set this up with OpenClaw,

uh it'll go in, download the transcript,

create timestamps, create an SEO

optimized description based off of

what's discussed in the live stream, add

tags, and then update YouTube. I don't

have to touch it. Sure, the first few

weeks I was monitoring how it was doing.

I was tweaking it. It did break once, I

want to say, in April. Um, but I just

set it, I forget about it. And that's

one of many automations I have in place

with OpenClaw. I have no intention of

migrating that to Grock or anything

else, right? There's just no point. It's

a waste of time. A waste of time.

Yeah. So, here, Grizz, this is actually

a great I love this comment. It's like

Hermes with training reels. So, listen.

Grockbot, I don't like

it's not revolutionary. It's not

gamechanging in the sense of it's

inventing anything new. What it's done

is reduced that friction that people had

with trying to set up an OpenClaw or

Hermes or Buzz system for that matter.

It's so easy and seamless to get

started. And that's what's gamechanging

about Grockbot. It's not the foundation

of it. It's just how easy it is to use.

Like that's what we needed. And I think

that's why it's making waves and and

it's essentially has gone viral, right?

Is it? Yeah, I haven't played with it

yet. So, one of my clients, we are

setting up individual desktop a access

for the employees. Uh, I did start

testing from an employees perspective

with the bots. It's super fun to use.

Um, not the same as Grockbot, but still

super fun to use. That staff's going to

have a lot of fun uh once they get

access to that next week. I love

Grockpot. It just blows through my usage

like crazy. Such a low pool with Super

Gro Heavy. Yeah, I hope they fix this.

Um,

the here's the reason I have two subs,

Adam, is because one cursor ultra sub

for me giving it responsibilities for

clear mud, but then also demoing and

experimenting with Grockbot from a

YouTube demo perspective. I was max I

maxed out way too quick, right? So, I

decided to just bite the bullet, so to

speak. I have a super grog heavy for

clear mud now. And then this cursor

ultra which is going to serve as a

YouTube demonstrated experiment lane of

just testing and having fun. And I

haven't hit 100% yet. Um

I it's my hope that they fix this

though. It's my hope that they fix this.

I think they're going to improve uh and

and and also become more transparent as

well. Like I'd like to see a

side-by-side comparison into how much

usage can I use via Cursor Ultra versus

how much usage can I use via Super Grock

Heavy. If it's the same and the only

reason I have these subscriptions is for

Grockbot, then it makes sense to only

pay for Cursor Ultra. But if you get

slightly more out of that Super Gro

heavy account than you do out of that

Cursor Ultra account when when I I think

we're going to get more clarity in the

coming weeks. Um, we just got to be a

little bit patient.

It's a good gateway for newbies.

Then they can graduate to her. Yeah,

they can graduate to whatever they want

to set up, right? It doesn't have to

just be Hermes. Listen, I,

as you've learned, I'm deploying Hermes

agent systems, but I'm still team

OpenClaw. If I had to choose one over

the two, it's OpenClaw.

That's just my preference.

acting like they're going insane, left

running. Yeah. So, I think a lot of this

is

lack of context around what you want

them to accomplish, which is sometimes a

bad thing, sometimes a good thing

depending on what you want to

accomplish, right? Um

yeah, I think a lot of this is lack of

lack of uh context of like what's its

purpose, right? Uh if you clearly define

its purpose and the certain loops you

want to achieve with your bots, uh when

you want them to stop doing work, that

won't happen, right? But if you leave it

open-ended, I could I could see a world

where that that could be a problem.

We've had some comments on some of the

videos we posted of people just uh

sending a task and the bot not stopping

because they weren't specific enough

with, you know, stop at this output,

right? Um so I I think um

yeah, I think that's case by case there.

Newb integration they enabled for X

after releasing Grockbot makes this

concept interesting. The bot can now

have its own presence on the platform

associated with your account. Yeah. So,

one thing I did notice though, if you

give full access and automation to your

Grockbot to post on your behalf, every

post says made with AI. But if you say

stage this draft or stage this reply and

then you go on mobile or desktop and you

go into your drafts and you make one

little change and hit post, that made

with AI tag is gone, right? So, if you

automate the posting and replying, yes,

you're just going to look like a bot,

though. Uh, I don't want to look like a

bot. I want it to help me, but

ultimately I'm the last person to

essentially send that prompt or let me

rephrase that. Send that post.

No. All good. I think it's on topic. So,

I hope that answers it.

Does low friction reduce usability

compared to other harnesses? Yeah. So,

I don't think so. I don't think so. I

think it's, you know, Grockadot is built

for a very specific type of person,

right? Um,

and we all have a touch of that type of

person. Like, a lot of us are techies, a

lot of us aren't, right? For some people

in installing Open Claw is intimidating,

for some it's not, right? It's like uh

and I I think as Grock gets better, I

I've said it before in the past and I've

gotten a lot of uh flak for it, but I

think Grock, Space XX, let me let me

rephrase this. SpaceX AI is going to be

one of the top frontier models in the

coming years.

Uh Claude is already I their downfall

needs to be studied.

Like, yo, what's up, David? How we doing

today?

They confirmed it's the same.

Interesting.

Yeah. Yeah. Very cool. I think we saw

that when we briefly went to go look.

Share as template.

Nice.

Now, does it pull

I'm curious if it pulls out any like

sensitive data in those instructions

automatically. I would imagine it does.

See where are we at? 11%. I'm not sure

where we started this session is. So I

wish I I kept track of that.

Yeah, I'm not going to delete them yet.

I want to go into my other system and

finish migrating these two.

Okay,

let's go back to

our database factory.

So, deal looks like he has some

responsibilities.

Subscribe form is live. Cool.

I'm curious to see like what uh what the

new UI is going to look like.

Hm. Okay.

Now, let's go back down to our

experiment pod.

Going to rename this experiment pod.

All right, cool. Let's um let's force

run one right now. Build me something.

and list out a table of all the routines

associated with this experiment pod as

well. So I get a

just a visual proof of what happens each

and every day.

Oh, you know what I'm realizing? We need

to add uh

how do we add

should be an easier way to add members,

right?

Huh? It's weird how Elon's not in here.

Is it settings? No.

You would think there'd be an easier way

to just add a member. No.

Do I have to create a new channel for

that? I'm shocked he's not in here.

Also,

we need to add Elon, our chief of staff,

into uh

Huh. into this uh team channel.

Hey, I noticed you're not in the team

channel for the experiment pod. Can you

add yourself? Can't find an easy way to

add you.

Interesting.

I mean, I could just create manually

another channel, but since they're

already doing work,

let's wait here.

Interesting. Okay.

Yeah, very interesting.

Okay. Looks like he's added in there.

Awesome.

And they adjusted the team, right? Check

out the engineers cuz they don't need to

be a part of each team pod.

Great.

Looks like Fable is building something

called same model. Don't know what that

is. Let's see how it looks.

Let's say model. Paste a stealth slug

plus date window show identifiers.

job people actually did name the

hangover.

This is very brief. Interesting.

All right. I'm very curious about

Grockbot as a whole. Do you operate

based off of certain skill MDs or

certain

a certain file system that we can then

organize certain markdown files so that

you follow them or each individual agent

follows them? I want to get a better

understanding of how we can improve

certain automations namely for database

factory for the experiment pod and any

other future teams we create.

My buzz partner installed Grockbot and

wanted me to collaborate on his

projects. It seemed impossible.

Interesting.

Yeah, I think right collaborating I from

to my understanding you can't bring

another human into your Grockbot system.

What you can do on the other hand is

either have one of your bots communicate

with another person through the remote

computer. Um,

give your Grockbot bot and underlying

bots an agent mail identity so that they

can email people at will.

Um, or if you're building a web app or

whatever, create a private GitHub

repository with your bots, have it sh,

you know, commit to Git that way and

then share that repository with somebody

else to collaborate.

That's that would probably be the most

efficient route there, AV.

But as I learn more, I'll uh I'll

definitely share. Matos

to the bane too. How are you?

Been AFK last couple weeks, but I've

watched your streams. Testing Crockpot

stickked more than Buzz. Nice. Nice. I

love it. Hey, observing is what it's all

about. Listen, I still have a Buzz boot

camp coming out. Actually, I'm still

going to record a firsttime setup use

for Buzz. Uh because I think Buzz is

still very powerful for its use case.

Um, I'm also going to be teasing

something to where we're launching a new

series on the channel, um, in

collaboration with a digital marketing

agency. Uh, the CEO is going to come on.

It's not going to be live. We're going

to record these videos. Uh, but we're

going to be creating agents and bots for

her business, which are then going to

serve as kind of like a dual purpose,

right? We're building out her agent team

for her, but we're also doing it live on

video so that we can then postedit and

create series on how to create an an XYZ

bot for XYZ. And I I say XYZ because

that's like fill in the blank, right? Uh

I think it's going to be super valuable.

Um, that is

at least two weeks out until we start

posting those videos. Uh, possibly

three. But it's it's on the calendar to

record. It's it's on the calendar. Um,

forgive me. I need to put this on

silent. I hate these little They just

They distract me too much. Um, it's in

motion. Let's just put it that way. It's

in motion. So, I'm super excited to

record those videos and uh share more

about um this project as soon as

possible.

Already had an iMessage gateway running

on Mac Mini for Hermes to use.

Nice. Lovely workound here. Awesome,

dude. Awesome.

Each seat has a job description in

memory. Yes, that's standing intent. A

routine is a clock. Yep. Plus a prompt.

Yeah, we know. A skill is a shared

recipe any seat can run. Okay. I don't

think he understood my question. Um to

make a new team tighter.

No, what I meant is is there a directory

somewhere like let me go check on my

route.

Um, command shiftG I think to search.

I guess not. Maybe I need to be in

finder.

There it is.

No. Yeah, it would be on the system

itself. I don't think it would be local.

Yeah.

Skills love on Grock bots computer. Got

it. Got it.

Show me a file tree

of how it looks and where to access that

on uh the remote computer.

really wish this was rich.

Could I get those responses in like rich

text? Is that possible here in Grockbot

chat?

because that table is uh while I can

read it, it's not uh it's not very uh

user friendly.

All right, we are back.

There we go.

So, daily products

7 days a week. It hunts.

It's live. Last 30 days, none. Dump when

this room asks. Okay. So, it's on

demand. Product architect

802. So, it's an hour later. Pick latest

live. Go to market. That's 30 minutes

roughly 30 minutes later. Every single

day pulls from latest. Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

I have an idea.

Let me go find this repository. One

second.

Home box scratchwork is

forward/workspace skills you care about.

Okay.

Hey, this is good to know here.

Ha. They call them agents.

They don't call them bots.

Awesome

man. This in itself can be a video right

here.

Interesting.

Wow. So, this is very valuable

information. Um, I'm kind of thinking

about turning this into a YouTube video

where it's about, you know, how to

properly configure your bots via

Grockbot.

Um,

any thoughts?

Oh, Nikolai was already on top of it.

I want you to build a um build an

Excalibur canvas.

I think we should have a screenshot of

this file tree, but also you know where

things get placed, what happens when you

create a new bot, how you should create

a new bot, um what you should be telling

your bot on how to store certain

information. uh I think would be super

valuable and I can walk through this uh

and we can walk through it in a YouTube

video recording and and you know a show

off existing systems but then b set up

new bot teams based off this.

This is taking a while.

Hey, where do we stand with this?

Yeah, they're already working there.

Looks like they've already built a

prototype here.

Super basic. So, I need to uh

Oh, I am. I am for sure.

So, what I do with that canvas tool is I

first create an Excal drawing and then I

hand it over to it and then it it

creates its version.

But I haven't recorded a video like that

since last week cuz the last video I

recorded, we really shot from the hip on

Tuesday to where I thought it would be

fun to when I set up that second account

to just record what I was doing and it

turned into a very great video, super

valuable. So, I'm going to start to to

record more videos like that to where I

don't do any prep work. I just have an

idea and I'm recording my screen and I'm

talking through it, right, real time.

Um, and then of course adding those

those types of elements if we need to.

But yeah, it's a two-part thing. I don't

build the canvas from scratch. I use an

Excal drawing to help me come up with

our canvas on clear mud canvas, if that

makes sense.

Oh,

yes.

Yeah, I just noticed I didn't see any

notification saying I needed to approve

a command within press. I think um you

know a rule of thumb moving forward I

want to be as handsoff as possible here.

Um so there should be no blockers, no

allow once, allow all. Uh whatever we

can do to override that within this

grouping would be great.

Sweet.

Oh, Grockbot Opus clone is what it was

called.

Yeah. So, we s saved Mud clip. So, I

could in theory get rid of that one,

but I think we're going to keep mud for

now.

Interesting.

We're about to find out what it does.

And let's see. Last time I checked,

we're at 11%. So, we burned through 3%

already. Interesting.

And how many days left do we have? Reset

in seven days. Change limit. Oh, it

takes us to cursor. Okay.

It'd be curious. I want to monitor this,

but I'd be curious to see, you know,

with these automations between the

experiment pod and the database factory.

Um,

no. Are you talking about my team? So, I

have my team specifically set to use uh

these harnesses here with these two

bots.

Where are you getting that from? Are you

getting that from my screen? Because I I

you know I set this up to to work a

certain way so that it could utilize

Opus or Fable through my Claude sub and

then also for GBT Soul um through my

codec bot.

So, the current plan that we're demoing

today is the Cursor Ultra $200 month

sub.

No, all good. All good.

Chris McConey.

I mean, he posts a lot, but I'm not sure

where you're seeing this from.

Ah, okay. Okay.

Okay.

Um, feel like it just made it worse,

right? What just happened?

I'm gonna wait for them to finish.

Um

Trying to find something. I could have

sworn I bookmarked it. I guess I didn't.

Maybe it's in here. Let me go check.

off screen.

I had this repo that I wanted to start

using. I was just trying to wait for

a good time

to use it. Hold on. I can't seem to find

it though. It's not here. Shoot.

That's a bummer.

Oh, what was I think it was

Okay, I did find a UI UX skill that I do

want to actually feed to this team.

All right. I'm not sure if you guys are

done with the work yet, but I didn't

think it would have been possible, but

you know, a the website looks exactly

the same and now the nav header is

essentially misaligned. Um, I'll send

you a screenshot, but

I'm wondering if I need to do a better

job at giving you guys a skill to follow

moving forward. Um, because you're just

not doing the work that I expect you to

do. So,

let me know how I can prompt you to do a

better job here.

Welcome back. Welcome back.

Oh, interesting.

I wonder if this is Yeah, interesting.

Very interesting.

I'll have to look into that.

Oh, I see what you mean. I see what you

mean. So, it was inspired off of this

Greg Eisenberg video, right? Um, that's

why I used like the same dollar sign,

dollar sign, dollar sign uh in our

title. And I've already created the B

database factory here. So this is not a

short-term plan, right? This is a

long-term plan, but it's not something

random, right? I built this uh I

squatted on this domain a while back

because I started building AI agents for

the construction industry, primarily

GC's uh and then construction companies

focused around demo and abatement. Um

but I thought what if we build our own

database factory? So, this is kind of

like the version one of it and its

purpose is to generate traffic. That's

our first goal is how do we get our

monthly visitors up to 10,000, then

20,000, then 50,000. You see my point?

Um,

and then eventually monetize it in a

number of different ways. But we can't

do that all in one day, right? Like this

is a slow burning project. So

that's, you know, route number one.

Route number two is this experiment pod

to where we build products every day,

see which one we want to ship live right

at the end of the week. Uh, and then I

want to build a trading bot, which I

think is more of a short-term

benefit to the viewer. Um, and I'd love

to collaborate with somebody experienced

in trading rather than me building a

super surface level trading bot. So

yeah, today we're just talking about the

idea of making money with Crockbot,

showing the foundational kind of bricks

I'm laying to make money down the road

off of this experimental account. If

that makes sense. Hope that answers

answers it, Matios.

Yeah, I do think uh let what tech stack

is this site built off of? Let's start

there. Um because I really love the idea

of using shadec components. So, if you

go to shadescenblocks.com,

you'll find a massive library of cards,

forms, like everything we need to build

an awesome website. Let's just put it

put it at that. And I can get a little

bit more specific, but maybe our tech

stack doesn't support those elements.

I'd be shocked to hear this, but please

let me know.

shade CN blocks.

It misspelled it, didn't it? Let me

double check that that's the right

domain.

Yeah, there we go.

Hey, let's go.

I'd love to be the judge of that right

there.

Astro 7 static custom CSS no react no

tailwind. Ah

well let's uh let's make these changes

then. Can we still keep everything

hosted on Cloudflare?

You also mentioned a faceless YouTube

channel in some past live stream. Um,

yeah, I think I know what you're talking

about, but the generative AI at that

moment in time, it just it didn't make

sense to release more slop in such a

sloppy

ecosystem. Um,

might be a good time to revisit that if

I'm being honest with you.

The question is, do we focus around

short form or long form? Feel like long

form is the move. No.

So, we started when I started looking at

it, we were at 11%. We might have

started at 9%. So, so far in this

session,

it's creeping up there. Interesting.

But I did do a lot of maintenance. We

did do a lot of prompting, a lot of

handoff documentation, a lot of deleting

uh after the handoff docs were ready.

So, I wonder how much percentage um that

was responsible for. You know what I

mean?

go sheets CN blocks. I want to give it a

specific um

nav header here.

Yeah, I like the idea of using this

header.

because it has a really awesome search

feature built into it. Um, let me know

if you have any questions.

And maybe I changed that. Maybe I

changed that. Let's see. Let's go back

to nav on.

For some reason, that is not working.

Why is that not working?

And then I think all obviously we should

have breadcrumb crumbs incorporated uh

into the nav at the top.

Yeah, it's crazy. I don't want to

contribute towards that, right? So, you

give me some ideas, though. You give me

some ideas.

Let me go check something. Maybe we

build out a team right now for this.

You just go pull up an old project.

Where did I put that? That's the

question though.

Was it in YouTube ideiation?

Or did I

Now, I could have sworn I had a certain

project somewhere.

Must have been a different account.

I can't seem to find it.

I honestly kind of thought it was a a

GPT, like a custom GBT that I built out.

Ah, maybe I just found it.

Where is all the context related to

this?

Uh, review GPT. No, that's gonna review

GPT.

Edit.

Welcome back. Configure.

Oh, wow. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. Remember reserving that

channel tag, huh?

Huh? Let me uh go full screen.

Okay, maybe we uh we build out that team

right now. So, we're going to call this

uh

oh, we create a new section from the

agent. You can't just create a whole new

section.

All right, I want to build out a new

team.

And this team is going to manage

a new Faceless YouTube channel, a tag

that I reserved called ABC Vault.

All right, I'm going to give you a copy

paste of some context about the idea

behind this channel. Keep in mind some

of this is outdated, so we'll need to

make some improvements, but I want to

build a team that complements this.

All right. And then I'm going to paste

this in there completely.

Oh man, time flies, huh?

All right, they're still building out

the new version of that.

We are burning through usage with this

experiment here.

Yeah, I'd imagine we want to create a

faceless team. So

ideiation

ideiation then leads to copyright

slashscripting

which then leads to voice over which

then leads to

video output which then leads to an

editor

or a composer so to speak that brings

everything together. the audio, the

video, the thumbnails. We need to add

that into the pipeline as well. Um, but

I want this working end to end. Of

course, we're going to take some time to

build out these specific bots that are

going to handle this pipeline, but let

me know if you have any questions. The

goal here is to automate a faceless

YouTube channel entirely through our

Grockbot

team

to where one weekly routine, sets in

motion

this pipeline

which ideates scripts, does the voice

over, creates the video outputs, splices

them all together, and then leaves me

with an MP4 that I can upload. Ideally,

we would want um a bot handling the

upload process as well, but the only

part of the blocker I want to be is me

reviewing the video and letting you know

thumbs up or thumbs down.

How funny is this quote from XAI talking

about why Grockbot is different? Reminds

me of our last 20 website from forever

we talked about. Oh yeah, I remember

what you were talking about. Last 20.

There's a huge difference between 90%

done and 100% done. Most AI gets you

there. Grockbot can finish the swing

because the work lands where a human

would put it in the actual tool. Yeah,

trying to remember. I I remember seeing

this post specifically.

Um, interesting. Did he create a new

team that I just don't see yet? Oh,

unassigned.

Yep. He's straight up creating an

entirely new team.

So, what we're going to do is add to

section.

Faceless

YouTube

pod.

Let's move this down here. I'm just

going to add Can I select more than one

agent at a time? Yes. Nice.

What? Oh, but then when you drag them,

it doesn't drag them all together.

That's rude.

Why are you going to allow us to select

multiple agents at once but not drag

them all? It's just rude.

That's just absolutely rude.

Yes, you can for sure. Um, there's a

little caveat there. There's a little

caveat. So, the bot itself is still

powered by Grock, but what's happening

is I installed Claude in the CLI on the

VM in this particular system. So,

anytime I want work done, I specify

which model or sometimes I don't specify

which model. Uh, but they essentially

prompt in that team chat what they want

from Claude. Claude then reports back

with its findings and then Grock the bot

itself, uh, whichever bot you're

powering essentially receives that

information and then handles it. So,

there's still that there's there's a

little asterisk there. On my other

system, I set up Peekaboo on my Mac to

where instead of having to install um

the CLI within the VMs.

It just prompts my system, right? And I

didn't have to authenticate anything

from that route. It was actually super

easy and convenient to do. Um but then

again, you're giving Grockbot access via

Peekaboo to your Mac OS, assuming you're

using Mac OS. But yeah, little asterisk

there, but you can get it to work.

All

right, we're just going to wait here. I

do need to

do something really quickly. So, BRB in

like two or 3 minutes.

Maybe we'll do some movie time in the

meantime.

And I was about to get up. Let me answer

this. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Exactly.

Apparently though, we need to look into

usage through our cursor account. But

there might be another route to doing

it. Um, I just need to do some research

before sharing my findings. Shout out

Anthony aka Pokemon here in chat who

shared this account. Kind of brought

this to our attention from Chris

Mcconey. Apparently, he's finding that

his cursor account is using different

models. Now, the question is how's this

tied to Grockbot, right? U so I need to

look into this and like why this is

happening, how it's happening. Um but

nevertheless, yeah, but that's one

workaround I found. I did both routes as

I mentioned. Uh great question though.

Hope it's helpful.

Now, we're going to set up some movie

movie time while we watch these agents

work. And uh I need to go AFK for a sec

and like what their margins are. It did

that on its own. I I was kind of blown

away and it made these

reports on each product idea and was

like here's my recommendation. Always

ask for recommendations by the way here.

Like my bulletproof system for testing

business ideas with Crockbot is I want

to do this, this, or this. So, I've got

three ideas. Maybe they're similar,

maybe they're different. Go research

each of them. Figure out how I can price

it, what the cost is going to be, and

then give me your top three

recommendations on how to do the damn

thing. And it just works. Uh you it your

task should not be open-ended when

you're doing research or you're just

going to end up doing research for two

weeks.

>> That's fair. Okay. So, you think I mean

you think Shopify that there's still

opportunity in in finding products,

finding audiences for those products and

then having agent teams manage that

whole process. That's,

you know, that's interesting because

like a, you know, on on this podcast we

talk a lot about like digital products,

SAS, vertical, AI,

um, not so much on the Shopify side. So,

it it is it's just interesting. Yeah, I

I'm not like an ecom expert. This is an

experiment uh I'm working on. But I

think it's nice to work on something

physical because the cost of creating

digital things is going to zero. There's

no friction there.

>> Uh actually making something physical uh

a brand that you can just like build

over time. I think that I think that's a

smart thing to do.

>> And over here I see you have site

builder stack. What do you mean by that?

Yeah. So I I just have an agent uh on my

other account that has this simple stack

of Cloudflare um the CLI tools. Uh pork

bun is where I buy domains. So it can

log into that on its computer and buy a

domain. Um and then I use this thing

called Astro for for it's a framework

for creating static sites and it's

connected to my GitHub. And so basically

like I needed I needed a link for people

to book meetings with me. Uh and I

didn't want to pay for Calendarly. So I

said I got it set up on this stack and I

said go embed my three different Google

calendars on this and I was literally

sitting on the phone on the beach and it

would send me okay here's a mockup of

this and I would tell it okay make

another branch and do a mockup in this

style and it would come back and through

Cloudflare it would have separate

developer links that I could review the

different styles in and then when I said

okay I like that one it connected it to

the domain that that I owned. Uh, and it

went live all from the beach and I set

that up in two or three hours that that

that stack. Uh, and I'll probably use it

for a long time just for simple I need

something to exist on the internet. It

doesn't need to be perfect or pretty.

>> So, is you know is that just like

internal tools building internal tools

or is there an opportunity to build some

of these tools and sell it to other

businesses?

Yeah. So, what I would use this for is

landing pages. So, yeah, it's kind of an

internal tool. If I want to sell, say, a

local business on being a sponsor, I

could just say, "Hey, um, you know, make

a landing page that speaks directly to

this customer or directories." Uh, so

Astro specifically is really good at

directories. So, if you if you're

interested in the SEO game,

just drew through that. This is the
