Good morning! AI is helping us at work and beating us at ping pong … let’s check it out.😆

This link leads to one of the most interesting things I’ve seen in AI recently.

When did searching turn into an endless scroll?

👾 Agent Scan

Audit your AI agent’s skills.

What’s new? OpenAI has introduced workspace agents in ChatGPT, letting teams build shared AI agents that can handle longer, more complex work tasks across their organization.

Want the details? Teams can create these agents inside ChatGPT by describing a repeatable workflow, such as writing reports, reviewing software requests, routing product feedback, qualifying sales leads, or checking vendor risk. The agents can connect to tools, use files and memory, run code, and work across ChatGPT and Slack. Organizations can also control what data and tools an agent can access, and require approval before it takes sensitive actions like sending emails or editing spreadsheets. These agents are powered by Codex and run in the cloud, which means they can keep working even when people are offline.

Why does this matter? Many workplace tasks are repetitive, slow, and spread across different people and tools. Shared agents could help teams save time, follow the same process more consistently, and focus more on higher-value work instead of routine coordination.

What happened? Sony AI’s table tennis robot, called Ace, beat elite human players in official matches, marking a major step forward for AI-powered robotics in the real world.

Want the details? Ace uses several cameras around the court to track the ball from different angles and figure out its speed, position, and spin in just milliseconds. By closely analyzing the ball’s logo, the system can estimate how the ball is rotating and adjust its shot almost instantly. Its decision-making skills were trained through about 3,000 hours of simulated play, while some techniques, like serves, were based on expert human players. The robot also reacts especially well to unusual shots, such as when the ball clips the net and suddenly changes direction.

Why is this significant? Table tennis is one of the hardest sports for robots due to its speed, precision, and constant unpredictability. Ace shows that AI is getting better not just at thinking, but at acting quickly and effectively in physical environments.

🚨⭐️ Unique opportunity: “Philosophy of AI”

DeepMind is paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for philosophical insights.

As a professional philosopher, I’m giving them away in an insider email every week.

📲 SOCIAL MEDIA POST OF THE DAY:

Same Kafka Protocol. Zero Kafka Baggage.

WarpStream BYOC speaks the Kafka protocol. Your existing clients, tools, and consumers work as-is. What disappears: local disks, partition rebalancing, inter-AZ fees, broker crashes, and capacity planning. 

Agents auto-scale to match traffic automatically – no custom tooling, scripts, or operators required. Cursor's team reported spending zero hours thinking about scaling WarpStream. Character.AI called it operationally simpler at scale.
