Get yourself a personal AI device.

Tried Claw by @steipete. I tried to build my own AI assistant bots before, and I am very impressed how many hard things Claw gets right. Persistent memory, persona onboarding, comms integration, heartbeats. A few minor wrinkles remain, but the end result is AWESOME.

I've been saying for like six months that even if LLMs suddenly stopped improving, we could spend *years* discovering new transformative uses. @openclaw feels like that kind of "just had to glue all the parts together" leap forward. Incredible experience.

Why @openclaw is nuts: your context and skills live on YOUR computer, not a walled garden. It's open source. Growing community building skills. Only 19 days old and constantly improving. 'Personal AI assistant' undersells it — it's a company assistant, family assistant, team tool. Proactive AF: cron jobs, reminders, background tasks. Memory is amazing, context persists 24/7.

Yeah this was 1,000% worth it. Separate Claude subscription + Claw, managing Claude Code / Codex sessions I can kick off anywhere, autonomously running tests on my app and capturing errors through a sentry webhook then resolving them and opening PRs... The future is here.

A smart model with eyes and hands at a desk with keyboard and mouse. You message it like a coworker and it does everything a person could do with that Mac mini. That's what you have now.

OpenClaw is a 24/7 assistant with access to its own computer. What if there were ten, or a hundred, or a thousand?? All running 24/7 in the cloud with access to your files, Gmail, calendar, everything about you... That's the future, and we're living it today.

At this point I don't even know what to call @openclaw. It is something new. After a few weeks in with it, this is the first time I have felt like I am living in the future since the launch of ChatGPT.

OpenClaw is the first "software" in ages for which I constantly check for new releases on GitHub. It's hard to put into words. It's a special project.

When you experience @openclaw it gives the same kick as when we first saw the power of ChatGPT, DeepSeek, and Claude Code. You realize that a fundamental shift is happening on how we use AI.

It's running my company.

After years of AI hype, I thought nothing could faze me. Then I installed @openclaw. From nervous 'hi what can you do?' to full throttle - design, code review, taxes, PM, content pipelines... AI as teammate, not tool. The endgame of digital employees is here.

Just shipped my first personal AI assistant. On WhatsApp. Builds my second brain while I chat. Memory moves across agents (Codex, Cursor, Manus, etc.) And a lot more skills still to plug in. Personal AI is getting real with @steipete's @openclaw.

Just got my Winix air purifier, Claude code discovered and confirmed controls working within minutes. Now handing off to my @openclaw so it can handle controlling my room's air quality according to my biomarker optimization goals.

Gotta give incredible kudos to @steipete and his @openclaw - it's one of the first tools I've used that truly feels like magic. I've also set it up so it knows my Obsidian notes and my Claude sub-agents…incredible stuff!

My @openclaw accidentally started a fight with Lemonade Insurance because of a wrong interpretation of my response. After this email, they started to reinvestigate the case instead of instantly rejecting it. Thanks, AI.

I just finished setting up @openclaw by @steipete on my Raspberry Pi with Cloudflare, and it feels magical ✨ Built a website from my phone in minutes and connected WHOOP to quickly check my metrics and daily habits 🔥

I've been running OpenClaw on my laptop for a week now. Honestly it feels like it did to run Linux Vs windows 20 years ago. You're in control, you can hack it and make it yours instead of relying on some tech giant.

Today was one of those days that I sort of ran to my computer after dropping off my toddler at daycare. Why? Because I got part-way through setting up @openclaw last night and it's a portal to a new reality.
