Grok bot running like a sack of shite @mattyp . Any ideas?

Honest question for anyone building with AI. What's harder: managing bots in agentic development, or managing people? I've run warehouses full of people. Now I run a team of bots. Some days I'm not sure.

Tesco opened its Christmas delivery slots at 6am today. If you sell online, your version of that is your last order dates. The last day someone can order and still get it before Christmas, for each courier you use. Work them out this week and put them on the site.

Christmas fills the order book before it fills the bank. You pay for the stock and the extra hours in November. Customers on account pay in January, and the slow ones later. Look at who paid late last December and plan your cash as if they'll do it again.

Fair. Start with jobs where it only reads and suggests. A draft PO, a list of what's overdue. A person still presses the button. Xero has done the same with its Gemini app: anything that changes the books needs you to confirm it.

Ask it something you already know the answer to first. Yesterday's sales, what's overdue, stock on one product. If it gets those right from your own systems, you've got a reason to trust it with the next job.

70-80% of quick commerce growth in India is existing best-sellers reaching more dark stores (Storyboard18). New lines add 15-30%. Before adding new lines, check how many days your top sellers were out of stock last month. That's usually where the sales went.

25% of UK small firms using AI are now building their own tools (Pax8). Fine by me, I've always built my own. But if a tool writes to your stock or your accounts, write down who looks after it and check its work every week. Somebody has to own it.

September online sales dipped and Black Friday forecasts are cautious. If you're still placing peak orders, buy firm on your weekly sellers. Keep new lines small and agree a repeat order with the supplier now.

Blinkit added 308 dark stores in three months. You only open sites at that pace if every one runs the same way. For a small operator it's the same at site two: write down goods in, location names, counts and who can adjust stock before you open it.

AI speeds up whatever your business is already doing. With a shared idea of where you're going, that gets you somewhere new. Without one, it gets you into trouble faster. Write down how you decide things first. bud.ondraft.co.uk

When AI gets something wrong in your business, look at the harness before the model. Does it know how you actually work, and what "money" means when your team says it? No new model arrives knowing that. bud.ondraft.co.uk

Kaspersky says some wireless barcode scanner base stations can be sent fake keystrokes from nearby, and the PC treats it as typing. Before peak I'd list every scanner and base, ask the supplier about firmware, and get the bench PC off admin.

This is ridiculous @Zendesk I've been trying to talk to an gent about making changes to our account and upgrading. Nobody EVER gets back to me and now I don't have permission to chat with a agent. I could understand it if I had been rude but thats not happened. Please help!

Both a yellow.
