It's easier if you started a while back shunning all human labor (including your own) in favor of fully deterministic systems. Reality is deterministic so your company or project logically can be run off a single compiled binary with f

We want the general public, AI researchers and policymakers to know to what extent AIs can autonomously acquire resources by running businesses. It is an important datapoint when deciding where we do/don’t want AI in society and what

Forking Postgres and patching the transaction engine to aid granular recovery is one obvious way to achieve this, but the more robust solution is to fork the Linux kernel and apply a surgical patch to the TCP/IP stack. A kernel level r

We used OpenClaw to run these experiments so that our scaffold was agnostic to the model provider. We conducted dry-run experiments with models from OpenAI and Anthropic before settling on Opus 4.8 as the best-performing model. In response

I'm surprised to not find the word "deflation" anywhere. It doesn't necessarily seem likely in the end given governments would presumably just print money, but intuitively AI seems like the ultimate deflationary technolo

The fundamental point I think is far too often confused is the difference between LLM and agentic system. An LLM can't do anything but generate tokens. You run your LLM in vLLM or whatever, and it generates output tokens based on you
