Facebook is the first to market with a polished openclaw? Good for them.

I'm sure many others will criticize other aspects of Meta, and rightly so. But imagine using a Claw agent with zero tech support available

They're not the first. Each lab has its own: grok bot, codex desktop, perplexity computer, Claude whatever

Openclaw creator Peter Steinberg was in talks with Zuck at the beginning of the year before choosing to work for Openai.

I think Meta limiting factor for this product was lack of agentic capable models which they fixed now with aggressive RLHF focused data gathering.

This is not even true. Gemini Spark has been there for a while.

I mean nobody really uses Gemini because is just too weak…

I mean, Google and x.AI already have stuff like this. There's plenty of other options as well. And even outside of that, I've heard the promise of "let AI book your reservations!" since before LLMs became a thing.

None of this seems new. Maybe polished, but useless to anyone who is seriously using AI for anything important. I imagine this is effectively a toy for boomers who want to feel like they're keeping up with the latest tech by tapping a few buttons in Facebook.

And none of that even touches that fact that nobody should be OK with Meta having this kind of access to their life. But I'll leave that to others to harp on lol

Meta isn't known for having great customer support

That depends on who you think Meta’s customer is.

I don't understand the meaning of the last sentence of this comment

They are saying OpenClaw/friends are hard to get setup and keep running without technical knowledge. Saying "Think of how hard it would be to setup OpenClaw without technical support"

Grokbot wa first and enterprise and consumer focused

Both enterprise AND consumer-focused? You've got to pick a lane.

there is no logout or instruction whatsoever on email, so zero tech support definitely not true

Instinct exists with the same features. It is quite good. I was thinking they were gonna get acquired by meta 100%, but looks like meta has a competitor.

It will probably fail bc they can't compete with instant distribution to 3B people worldwide

porridgeraisin 4 hours ago | parent [-]

Yep. But I suppose these are early forms of the product and who distributes the next, high PMF product the best is what matters. So I wouldn't write off others.

xAI/cursor was first with grokbot

porridgeraisin 4 hours ago | parent | next [-]

It was behind the heavy 100$/mo+ plans. Clearly meant for enterprise and not consumer.

People didn't know because "grokbot" sounds like a bot that makes revenge porn of your enemies
