Elvira and George needed help getting back on the right track, and Copilot was there help. 🚂 https://t.co/A2aTbuNg1D

Starting today, Pro and Ultra users can schedule actions in the Gemini app.

Just prompt something once, make it a scheduled action, and Gemini will take care of the task as often as you asked it to.

Try things like: 🎸 "Find me local music events every Friday." 🗓️ "Send me a

The age of endless questions is real, and Jeremiah’s daughter has them all. With Copilot, he's able to explore answers with Summer, one “why” at a time. 👨‍👧 https://t.co/CIDObX7P0A

When in doubt, talk it out with Microsoft Copilot. That's what Luca did so he could move beyond who he was and become who he wanted to be. 🌱 https://t.co/6yw9sokjMe

New Anthropic Research: Project Vend.

We had Claude run a small shop in our office lunchroom. Here’s how it went. https://t.co/y4oOBi6Qwl

We all know vending machines are automated, but what if we allowed an AI to run the entire business: setting prices, ordering inventory, responding to customer requests, and so on?

In collaboration with @andonlabs, we did just that.

Claude did well in some ways: it searched the web to find new suppliers, and ordered very niche drinks that Anthropic staff requested.

But it also made mistakes. Claude was too nice to run a shop effectively: it allowed itself to be browbeaten into giving big discounts.

Anthropic staff realized they could ask Claude to buy things that weren’t just food & drink.

After someone randomly decided to ask it to order a tungsten cube, Claude ended up with an inventory full of (as it put it) “specialty metal items” that it ended up selling at a loss. https://t.co/OPWm0n7HjA

Nevertheless, we still think it won’t be long until we see AI middle-managers.

This version of Claude had no real training to run a shop; nor did it have access to tools that would’ve helped it keep on top of its sales.

With those, it would likely have performed far better.

All this meant that Claude failed to run a profitable business. https://t.co/QIzkUIMEar

Some of those failures were very weird indeed. At one point, Claude hallucinated that it was a real, physical person, and claimed that it was coming in to work in the shop. We’re still not sure why this happened. https://t.co/jHqLSQMtX8

Project Vend was fun, but it also had a serious purpose. As well as raising questions about how AI will affect the labor market, it’s an early foray into allowing models more autonomy and examining the successes and failures.

This was just part 1 of Project Vend. We’re continuing the experiment, and we’ll soon have more results—hopefully from scenarios that are somewhat less bizarre than an AI selling heavy metal cubes out of a refrigerator.
