Last week was the most intense AI week of the year. All the major companies rushed to release their updates before year-end.
We saw announcements from Google, OpenAI, Lindy AI, 11 Labs, Meta, Devin AI, xAI, Windsurf, and more. (This list isn’t even exhaustive, but find here the golden nuggets!)
But the pearl of the week? Our one-script AI agent that you can customize as you wish. 🤯

Updates from Google with their multimodal, real-time AI: Gemini Flash
Google released real-time AI with Gemini 2.0, raising the bar for everyone.
It processes video streams in real-time and can reason through content in a highly knowledgeable way, explaining relatively complex topics to you.
Here are the top three posts I found:
Assisting with CT abdomen case
Reading research papers on steroids
Let Gemini watch your screen and help keep you focused—an exemplary application.
Build Your AI Agent: Download My AI Agent Script
Last week, I gave a workshop in Seoul at the AI Summit on how to build AI agents, along with delivering a keynote on the same topic.
What people loved most was understanding how to build an AI agent with just one script.
To get started, you need to first understand the key elements of an AI agent.
Download the script here, add your OpenAI API key (or any AI model you prefer), and enter the respective API key of the tool you’re using. By default, it’s set to the Weather API.
Now, get started and start experimenting! 🔥
Also, OpenAI pushes updates before year-end
OpenAI has released a lot during their 12-day release series, including the updated Canvas and o1 and o1 Pro, which are impressive. They have also launched vision capabilities, similar to what Gemini 2 offers.
Additionally, they released Sora v2, which many had been patiently awaiting after the limited availability of v1.
Being in the EU…
Unfortunately, it’s a pity that many of these groundbreaking releases are not available in most parts of the EU, largely due to the current regulatory environment.

Updates on Conversational Agents
As you can see, OpenAI and Google have made significant progress in this area, even integrating video capabilities. However, the market for disruption is vast and on the brink of transformation. Currently, 17 million people still work in call centers and BPO offices.
In the long run, humans simply cannot compete with AI agents regarding cost, availability, and, ultimately, performance.
This creates opportunities for platforms like Lindy AI and Elevenlabs, which have built conversational AI agents as a service.
If you’re interested in building your own AI call agent, I have a script for that. Would you be interested?
