OpenClaw — Personal AI Assistant

OpenClaw (formerly MoltBot, formerly ClawdBot) showed up first from a blogger I follow. He was doing some really interesting stuff so I grabbed the link and checked it out. Then I saw Viticci of MacStories wrote that this showed him what the future of personal AI assistants looks like.

Sadly I still haven't had time to install this myself and now reading some of the newest articles I probably need to think a bit about how I firewall it off so it doesn't do something I don't want it to. In fact the folks at 1Password even jumped on the bandwagon with how to share access with agents which is really them trying to get some social action but also a good point. As we have agents operating on our behalf we are going to want to give them access to our information and doing that with a robust password manager makes a ton of sense.

There are a ton of extensions to this project at ClawHub, and this recap of multiple reactions to OpenClaw from Tsai is a good read too.

Now I just need to play with this — and sadly the week ahead is completely busy. 😬
