I know this is like shooting very large fish in a very small barrel, but the openclaws/molt/clawd thing is an amazing source of utter, baffling ineptitude.

For example, what if you could replace cron with a stochastic scheduler that cost you a dollar an hour by running an operation on someone else’s gpu farm, instead of just checking the local system clock.

The user was then pleased to announce that they’d been able to solve the problem by changing model and reduce the polling interval. Instead of just checking the clock. For free.

Is there a pivottoai that I missed that introduces this? At some point people just started saying “clawd” like it’s a real word and I have zero idea what it is, or if I even should know what it is.

EDIT: huh, yes I did: pivot-to-ai.com/…/moltbot-clawdbot-an-expensive-a…

tl;dr: someone made a thing where chatbots control a computer called clawdbot, moltbot, openclaw github.com/openclaw/openclaw

someone else made a thing where these chatbots can chat at eachother www.moltbook.com

and now all the ai people are freaking out about how game changing chatbots doing computer tasks (dangerously and expensively) is. could this be a robot consciousness? the end of the economic order? an excuse for the bubble to go on for another fiscal quarter?

I might be missing something but I think that’s literally it.
