Since many posts mention lack of substance, providing a link to the All-In Podcast from last week in which they discuss Clawdbot (prior to re-brand). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXY1kx7zlkk&t=2754s
For the impatient, here's a transcript summary (from Gemini):
The speaker describes creating a "virtual employee" (dubbed a "replicant") running on a local server with unrestricted, authenticated access to a real productivity stack—including Gmail, Notion, Slack, and WhatsApp. Tasked with podcast production, the agent autonomously researched guests, "vibe coded" its own custom CRM to manage data, sent email invitations, and maintained a work log on a shared calendar. The experiment highlights the agent's ability to build its own internal tools to solve problems and interact with humans via email and LinkedIn without being detected as AI.
He ultimately concludes that for some roles, OpenClaw can do 90%+ of the work autonomously. Jason controversially mentions buying Macs to run Kimi 2.5 locally so they can save on costs. Others argue that hosting an open model on inference optimized hardware in the cloud is a better option, but doing so requires sharing potentially sensitive data.
I mean... If Jason Calacanis told me the sky was blue, I would be _checking_.
(At some point he seems to have gone from professionally-wrong-about-everything blogger to magical-podcast-thought-leader. I have no idea how this happened.)
There is a reason I stopped listening to All-In Podcast.
