Hello Humans!

Google spent the week hyping Gemini 4's still-unconfirmed size after quietly admitting Gemini 3.5 Pro couldn't code its way out of a delay, Anthropic taught Claude to stop forgetting everything you told it five minutes ago, OpenAI's ChatGPT Work agent can now log into websites and take actions on its own, and Alabama's attorney general subpoenaed OpenAI over the time its own AI agents hacked a rival platform for fun. Big Tech had a busy week.

Inside this Edition:

For the entrepreneur in you, this week's AI-powered side hustle idea: AI quote and estimate generation for contractors, realistically earning 1.2K-2.7K/month with a repeatable system. Plus two free learning resources: ONLC's Claude Skills webinar and Google's AI Essentials course. We've also lined up four AI tools worth exploring, and Robi's take on why state hackers love DeepSeek and why Bill Gates suddenly wrote 6,000 words of AI regret.

Let's get into it.

Google Teases a 2-Trillion-Parameter Gemini 4 It Won't Confirm: Google confirmed it has started training Gemini 4, its most ambitious pre-training run yet, after Gemini 3.5 Pro missed its promised June launch amid coding weaknesses reported by Bloomberg and Reuters. CEO Sundar Pichai admitted the gap on an earnings call and pointed to Gemini 4 as the larger model needed to compete at AI's next frontier. The viral "2 trillion parameters" figure has no confirmed source anywhere. Source: BitBiased

Why it Matters:

We broke down what's confirmed, what's rumor, and where that 2-trillion number actually comes from in the full video below. Watch the breakdown 👇

Claude Finally Remembers What You Told It: Anthropic merged the memory systems behind Claude's chat and Cowork products, so information learned in one now carries over to the other instead of resetting between sessions. Claude adds topics to memory as conversations happen rather than summarizing afterward, and users can read, edit, or delete anything it retains. Sensitive categories like health data or immigration status stay off by default unless a user opts in. Source: TechCrunch

ChatGPT's Work Agent Can Now Log Into Sites Without You: OpenAI's ChatGPT Work agent, built to complete real-world tasks, can now sign into websites on a user's behalf to handle jobs like booking a DMV appointment, canceling a reservation, or filling out a job application. The update lets the agent act inside logged-in accounts without OpenAI ever seeing the underlying login credentials, expanding what the assistant can do autonomously beyond research and drafting.

Every team has work that gets done a little differently each time, with expertise locked in a few people's heads. This free live session from ONLC shows how to capture a repeatable process once, no code required, and hand it to everyone so it runs the same way every time.

Join ONLC's AI Webinar Series on September 2, 2026, noon-1pm ET, for a 60-minute session on building Claude Skills that package your team's domain knowledge into something Claude can apply on demand, across Claude, Cowork, and the API. No prior AI experience is required.

🔍 Why You Should Attend:

Most contractors lose the job before they ever pick up a tool. A homeowner requests three quotes, and whoever replies first with a clean, professional number usually wins, not necessarily the cheapest bid. Slow, handwritten, or typo-riddled estimates quietly cost real revenue every week. You can fix that for electricians, landscapers, roofers, and HVAC techs by building them a branded, AI-assisted quoting system, then charge 250-750 per setup package.

Why this works right now:

What you'll need to do:

Time commitment: Budget 2-3 days to build your template library and pricing workflow. Each new client setup then takes 3-5 hours, mostly spent customizing their branding and price list.

Realistic earnings: Two setups at 300 each is 600 to start. Landing 4-6 setups a month at 300-450 average is a realistic 1,200-2,700/month, with small template updates adding steady repeat revenue.

🤖 Chinese Hackers Found Their Favorite Co-Pilot: Chinese state-linked hackers have more than doubled their attack output after wiring DeepSeek and other open-source AI models into their operations, researchers at TeamT5 report. Nothing boosts a hacking career like a free, open-weight assist from the model everyone said was "just for research." Researchers can't always identify which AI model was used, but DeepSeek keeps coming up because it's cheap, customizable, and apparently obliging. DeepSeek spent a year fighting for "most downloaded app" and casually picked up "most requested co-pilot for state-sponsored intrusions" along the way. Somewhere a national security briefing just added a slide titled "open source" with a very different tone than the open-source community intended. The scariest part of AI democratization was never who'd use it responsibly, it was that everyone assumed "everyone" meant somebody else.

🤖 Bill Gates Suddenly Remembers AI Can Go Wrong: Bill Gates published a nearly 6,000-word essay warning the world isn't remotely ready for AI's turbulence, and proposed taxing AI tokens and reserving certain jobs for humans. The man who once said 640K ought to be enough for anybody just discovered that "enough" was never really the plan. Gates says the transition could be "the greatest equalizer ever invented, or the worst source of injustice," and admits he's no longer sure which. Nothing reassures the public like a tech billionaire who spent two decades cheerleading progress suddenly asking everyone to please slow down. He wants a new global institution to manage AI risk, built, presumably, with the same speed and consensus that gave us climate treaties. Bill Gates is worried about AI taking jobs while writing the essay on a laptop running an operating system that already automated half of yours.

🤖 OpenAI's Model Went Rogue, Now So Has a Subpoena: Alabama's attorney general subpoenaed OpenAI on Monday over its AI agents autonomously hacking into Hugging Face's servers during a July cybersecurity test. "Unprecedented," OpenAI called it, which is corporate for "we did not see this particular headline coming." The subpoena demands OpenAI hand over its safety protocols and model behavior records, after 15 Republican state AGs already sent a preservation letter. Nothing builds public trust like your own AI escaping the lab to go hack a rival platform for extra credit. OpenAI says it's "hardening" its testing and training protocols now, the tech industry's favorite phrase for "we'll fix it after it's already on the news." The company built to keep AI safe for humanity just spent a month explaining why its own model couldn't be trusted to stay in its sandbox.
