been writing code for 15 years now , agree with the author about this one , open-claw like agents are going to be the future. Already automated away a bunch of routine stuff like checkin FB marketplace if l’m looking to but something , daily stock position brief , calendar management , grocery planning and buying , workout and calorie tracking . Stopped using a bunch of app directly overnight . The “mid-wits” are the one with their head still stuck under that sand

and the "hype-wits" don't realize openclaw is just claude with good mcp. there is nothing new under the sun. its just the first time someone was benevolent enough to open source the codebase to the public or it went viral enough to matter... and yet what people focus on is its "emergence" or "agi" - neither of which are remotely true. but good luck "crushing" those "mid-wits"

		Yes claude + scripts without any big corp restrictions / bloat , if i want to connect to a website or api i can just do it. If you expose it to me as a human it is fair game for my assistant to read data the same way i do. Its like the old days of internet . I build harnesses for a living these days , i see why enterprises are slow to even to see what is possible
