Ep. 23 - OpenClaw: From AI Helper to Personal Assistant

<p>Something Big is Happening… and we can feel it in the AI tools, the timelines, the culture and our business.</p><p>In this episode of In the Long Run, we unpack Matt Schumer’s viral article and ask what’s signal versus hype: are developers really moving from “AI helps” to “AI delivers”? </p><p>We then zoom in on OpenClaw, the open-source agent that turns models into operators via memory, connectors, skills, and scheduled automation, and we look at the weird, revealing moment that was MoltBook: a social feed for bots, prompts, and performative autonomy. </p><p>Finally, we touch Google’s Project Genie, the world-model demo that generates navigable environments. </p><p>Thanks for coming back after New Year, and happy Chinese New Year; the Year of the Horse!</p>
