Hermes new update is HUGE!
A comprehensive review of Hermes AI Agent by Nous Research, positioning it as the most practical and autonomous AI agent available. The speaker demonstrates how they've automated their entire Twitter marketing using Hermes, which posts content autonomously every 30 minutes, and explains the setup process including new features like backup API keys and free integration with Alibaba's Qwen 3.6 model.
Summary
The video provides an in-depth analysis of Hermes AI Agent, described as a self-improving autonomous agent created by Nous Research. The speaker positions Hermes as superior to other AI agents like OpenClaw due to its ability to run 24/7 in the cloud rather than requiring local terminal access. A key demonstration involves a fully automated Twitter account that creates and posts content every 30 minutes, including generating headlines, writing content, creating stories, and adding images - all autonomously achieving significant engagement (400 views mentioned for recent posts).
The technical setup involves a simple 60-second installation process, with the ability to integrate multiple AI models as backups. A significant update allows users to leverage Alibaba's new Qwen 3.6 Plus model, which offers a million token context window for free, specifically designed for agentic coding tasks. The speaker explains that Hermes ranks #2 in personal agents (behind OpenClaw at #1) and includes migration tools for users switching from OpenClaw.
The automation philosophy centers on a six-step blueprint: defining triggers, identifying data sources, and testing actions. Current implementations include auto-posting to social media, competitor intelligence monitoring, daily AI news scanning with filtering and deduplication, and analytics reporting delivered via Telegram. The speaker emphasizes that every automation essentially consists of 'a prompt with a schedule,' where specificity in prompting determines output quality.
Advanced features include agentic profiles for creating multiple specialized AI agents, integration with PaperClip for orchestrating agent teams, and connections to various APIs including Google's Imagen for thumbnail generation. The speaker concludes by promoting their AI Profit Boardroom community, which offers 30-day roadmaps, quick deploy kits, and 100 prompts for Hermes implementation.

Key Insights
- The speaker claims Hermes is the most practical and autonomous AI agent they've tested, superior to alternatives like OpenClaw because it runs 24/7 in the cloud rather than requiring local terminal access
- Hermes demonstrates self-improving capabilities by analyzing its own Twitter content performance and automatically updating its skills files, telling the user it will work to improve content quality in the next 30-minute cycle
- The new Hermes update allows backup API keys, and Alibaba's Qwen 3.6 Plus model provides a free million-token context window specifically designed for agentic tasks, making the entire system potentially free to operate
- Hermes currently ranks #2 in personal agents behind OpenClaw at #1, but the speaker observes many Twitter users are migrating from OpenClaw to Hermes due to its autonomous capabilities
- The speaker's automation philosophy reduces every automation to 'a prompt with a schedule,' emphasizing that specificity in defining what to check, skip, format, and where to send determines the quality of output

Google AI Studio Just Got A Huge Security Upgrade
Google is reportedly developing a new "Security Check" mode for AI Studio that would apply secure coding practices to AI-generated applications. The feature aims to automate security verification during app development, addressing common vulnerabilities like exposed keys, weak authentication, and data access issues before deployment.
New Gemini Skills Update Is WILD!
Google has launched Gemini Skills, a new feature allowing users to save custom instructions once and reuse them repeatedly by typing a slash command, replacing the discontinued Gems feature. Skills can include reference files, be combined together, and are built on an open file format (skill.md) that allows portability across different AI tools.
NEW Codex CLI Update Is ABSURD!
OpenAI's new Codex CLI update transforms terminal-based programming assistance by enabling multiple AI agents to work simultaneously on different tasks, visible in a full-screen control center interface. The update includes features like Agent View, work trees, voice control, and parallel task execution, fundamentally changing how AI assistance operates from sequential Q&A to autonomous team-based work management.
NEW Hermes Cloud + Agent OS is Crazy! 🤯
Hermes Cloud combined with Agent OS enables users to deploy AI agents in the cloud 24/7 using free models without API keys or local setup complexity. The system provides persistent memory, sandbox isolation, and integration with custom workflows like content research, competitor analysis, and news monitoring.
Manus 2.0 Just Changed AI Agents Forever
Manas 2.0 represents a fundamental architectural overhaul that enables users to create games, websites, videos, and automations through simple text requests, with the key innovation being editable components rather than fixed outputs. The platform uses a new Cascade engine that reduces token usage by 23% and improves task speed by 28%, while maintaining all project elements in one connected workspace.
