"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

OpenClaw's design has drawn scrutiny from cybersecurity researchers and technology journalists due to the broad permissions it requires to function effectively. Because the software can access email accounts, calendars, messaging platforms, and other sensitive services, misconfigured or exposed instances present security and privacy risks.

OpenClaw is a tool where you hand over access to your computer to an LLM to do what it wants with it. I think that is kinda psychotic, don't you?

And I am personally glad to learn about it from other people’s mistakes and experiences.

It wouldn’t be the first thing that sounded crazy but changed the world.

Most of the time it turns out that the crazy sounding thing is crazy and I appreciate easily keeping up without having to chase every rabbit hole.
