episode Is Google Omni worth your time? cover

Beskrivelse

Google released Gemini Omni at Google I/O 2026 and we ran it through its paces in Google Flow to see if the hype holds up. It mostly doesn't. At least not yet. Gemini Omni is Google's new multimodal AI model, meaning one model handles text, images, audio, and video. You access it through Gemini directly or through Google Flow, and a paid Google subscription is needed. The flagship use case right now is AI video generation, so that's what we came to test. We tried uploading source footage to remix and style-transfer. The uploads stalled at 0% and never moved. Different upload path. Same result. So we switched to image-to-video: upload a photo, write a prompt, get a clip. The upload worked. The prompt didn't. Gemini Omni generated something, but it ignored the source image and went cartoonish in a direction we never asked for. Adjusting the prompt made things worse. Subscribe to Prompt and Circumstance for hands-on tests of what's actually shipping in AI.

OpenClaw Agent Teams

Set up a decentralized agent team in OpenClaw to complete complex tasks. We walk you through a real use case to set up a morning briefing using two agents, a researcher and a summarizer. They hand off work to each other on a schedule so you wake up to a one-minute AI news brief on your phone.   Chapters   00:00 - Intro 00:47 - Why You Need an Agent Team 02:50 - Agent Team Patterns 04:50 - Ilan's Morning Briefing Setup 08:30 - How Zoe Was Built 10:50 - Wrap-Up and Key Takeaways     Business Use Cases   - Set up a decentralized agent team in OpenClaw where each agent saves its output to a workspace file and the next agent picks it up to complete its part of the task. - Use cron jobs to schedule agents in sequence with time gaps between them, then test each agent manually before automating. - Give each agent a pop culture persona that matches the work style you want, and define a clear output contract (a saved file) so the agent knows exactly when its job is done.     Links   OpenClaw - https://openclaw.ai OpenClaw GitHub - https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw OpenClaw Docs - https://docs.openclaw.ai Agent Team Builder Skill - https://github.com/canuckamok/agents/tree/main/skills    Find Us   YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@PandCpodcast Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/pandcpodcast.bsky.social X - https://x.com/_pandcpodcast Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/_pandcpodcast LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/p-and-c-podcast * (00:00) - Intro * (01:06) - Why You Need an Agent Team * (02:52) - Agent Team Patterns * (04:43) - Ilan's Morning Briefing Setup * (08:26) - How Zoe Was Built * (11:15) - Wrap-Up & Key Takeaways

OpenClaw for beginners

If you want an AI agent that handles your repetitive tasks while you sleep, watch this. We got tired of clicking the same buttons and reading 50 newsletters a day just to keep up with tech. It takes way too much time. So we stopped doing it manually. Now, we have an autonomous agent that wakes up early, scrapes the internet, and writes a 30-second brief for us. In this episode of Prompt and Circumstance, we show you exactly how we built this using OpenClaw. OpenClaw isn't just another text box. It actually takes over your mouse and keyboard. It opens applications and executes tasks exactly like a human would. Here is what we cover: 1. What OpenClaw actually is and why it beats standard chatbots 2. How to skip the complicated terminal commands and install it on Hostinger 3. How to configure the system messages so your agent knows exactly how to behave 4. The exact setup we use to make it valuable for our own daily work VIDEO LINK Click here to watch a video of this episode.
