A month with #OpenClaw has me convinced that Agentic AI is the real deal.

I've been skeptical of the AI hype cycles. Even here, the economics are largely not there yet, and it’s far from consumer-ready. But it's hard to deny the raw potential it is already showcasing.

For a few cents, it can draft a script, validate it, and instruct a user how to run it on a system cron. From there, an agentic cron can retrieve the output and make decisions entirely locally on modest consumer hardware. Its easy to see how chaining this together can build valuable automation.

The question is whether frontier models can become economically (and environmentally) viable enough so that the user doesn't have to think about the architecture. Can we hand tasks off to more reliable models without breaking the bank or the ozone layer? Can we trust the inputs will be private and secure?
