OpenClaw was an inevitability. An obvious idea that predates LLMs. It took this long for models and pricing to catch up. As much as I dislike this term, if there's one clear example of "Product Model Fit", it's OpenCla

It's not the only thing they're doing with it. I mean, the logic is sound - $180 goes into automating bunch of manual processes in personal life, one of which is getting movies, which in some cases involves going out on the high

GPUs are consumables, not infrastructure. Model weights are the lasting thing. It's always like that with software. You can still run an OS or a program made 20 years ago, in some cases that program may in fact have no modern replaceme

Unlike the industry, science has actual standards of conduct, which puts it in a unique position to fix it quickly - if only the journals were doing the one job they have. Hallucinated citations == strong evidence of scientific fraud. Name

Nothing in this world is guaranteed. That doesn't mean it's uniformly random either. LLMs can still do something unexpected if you give them clear instructions, but that doesn't mean it'll be arbitrary and unpredictable

LLMs couldn't do any damage with hallucinated citations - on the contrary, this is only ever a problem for people so clueless and uncaring that they didn't even bother reading what LLMs wrote for them. Hallucinated citations are e
