The AI Flattery Problem

You already know AI kisses up to you.

Tell it your idea, you're a genius.

Ask it to grade your work, gold star.

Great for your ego…

Useless for getting better…

So I fixed it.

I built a Cognitive Capability Assessment.

Two prompts...

That's the whole thing…

You point it at your own AI chats — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, whatever you run.

It reads how you actually think and work.

Then it scores you.

For real.

No fake IQ number. Real-world, evidence-based, engineered to not be a yes-man.

First prompt runs the assessment.

Second one builds a clean HTML report card.

Your score, and exactly how it got there.

Lives 100% inside your own AI.

Private.

(Handy, if you score low. 😏)

👉 Get it here.

My friend Meredith ran it and called it "addictive."

It'll also tell you stuff you don't want to hear.

Like the truth…

Did You Know?

Generative AI is worth around $7,800 per knowledge worker per year. 

$7,800 per employee per year is the average productivity value of generative AI tools for knowledge workers.

A 20-person firm is leaving roughly £120k a year on the table. When the value is that obvious, your fee stops being an expense and starts being a rounding error.

🗞️ The Tip AI News 🗞️

Now, quick one on OpenClaw.

They just shipped native iOS and Android apps.

Cool.

Genuinely.

But if that app's how you mainly talk to your agent...

you're doing it wrong.

The whole point of OpenClaw is autonomy.

Your agent runs on its own machine.

Does its own work.

Comes to you.

You shouldn't open an app to check on it.

It should come to you.

Best way to do that is still Discord or Telegram. (Slack or Teams if you must.)

You're already in those apps all day.

Your agent posts there, you reply there.

And it feels like texting a teammate, not running software.

Set it up right and you barely touch the gateway again.

Notifications, approvals, reports, commands — all of it, in the chat app you already have open.

And here's a tip almost nobody knows.

You can run the talk feature without the gateway.

Free local text-to-speech instead of the official app.

Voice with your agent.

No app or extra cost.

So why'd they build the mobile apps?

To give beginners a front door.

Fine for getting started.

But once you know how to deploy OpenClaw properly...

the app's just training wheels.

The real power is headless.

Dedicated machine, run through Discord and Telegram, agent working while you go live your life.

That's how I run 40+ machines across three locations — home, the office, and a solar-powered rack out at an off-grid ranch.

Not one of them do I touch from a phone.

Command from chat.

Agents do the work.

I approve what matters. Done.

Cool that OpenClaw has apps now?

Sure.

Would I use them as my way in?

Not a chance.

Your thumbs are better off in Telegram. 😏

Over to You...

That's it for today.

Go let AI be honest with you.

Then reply and tell me how you scored.
