weekly.ai’s Fifty-fifth Edition 🎉

Every week, we break down the newest tools, strategies, and breakthroughs so you can turn AI into ROI.

AI is quickly becoming the invisible force behind everything we do. Google's Gemini rollout at I/O (their annual conference) proves this by embedding AI directly into tools like Google Search, Gmail, Docs, and more. Now, AI is just built into the product, powering how we work and communicate every day. By going where people already are, strategies like this should lead to a spike in AI adoption.

Here’s a preview of what else you’ll find inside:

Let’s start!

Most sales reps spend too much time jumping between LinkedIn, company websites, CRM notes, and Google searches before every meeting.

Step 7: Improve Your Prep Process Weekly

Google used I/O to make one thing clear: Gemini is no longer just a chatbot… it’s becoming the operating layer across Google’s entire ecosystem. From Search and Gmail to Docs, shopping, coding, Android, video generation, and even smart glasses, Gemini is being embedded directly into how products function. Instead of opening a separate AI tool, users increasingly interact with AI as part of the experience itself. The bigger shift is that AI assistants are evolving from standalone apps into the invisible infrastructure powering everyday computing.

In other news…

OpenAI launched a personal finance feature for U.S. Pro users inside ChatGPT through integration with Plaid. Users can connect financial accounts and ask questions about spending, budgeting, and transactions directly in chat. Instead of manually reviewing banking apps or spreadsheets, the AI can summarize and analyze financial activity conversationally.

Netflix is expanding INKubator, its generative AI-focused animation studio. The initiative explores how AI can assist with storyboarding, animation workflows, and creative production at scale.

Five lesser-known tools that help sales teams prepare smarter and close faster:

Your docs have more contributors than ever. Engineers, PMs, support, marketing, and now AI agents. But most documentation tools force a choice: an accessible editor for the whole team, or the rigor of git-based version control for developers. That tradeoff slows everyone down.

Mintlify's editor removes the tradeoff. Writers get a visual WYSIWYG experience with slash commands and editable navigation. Developers keep their git-native workflow. Every visual edit is a clean commit, every commit appears in the editor. Changes flow both ways.

The editor also brings live collaboration and AI agents as first-class contributors:

The best documentation is written by everyone who has context. That's your whole team. And now, your agents. Try it at mintlify.com.

Score your docs!

Last week in the AI Playzone, we showed you two images of this furry critter and challenged you to identify which one was AI-generated. Did you get it right?

Answer: Plot twist 😉. Both images were actually not generated by AI. Hard to tell, wasn’t it?

Tomorrow, we’re hosting one of my favorite events here at BotBuilders: Amplifier. We intentionally keep things small by capping these in-person events at 20 seats max. The goal? To help our community record professional videos and to also clone themselves with AI. Are you using AI video for your business? If you aren’t, you should. When done right, it can be a big needle mover.

Until next week,
