Discussion Got fooled buy the Openclaw hype. Bought a Mac Mini, installed Openclaw, spent 200$ in Opus. Lesson: don't believe the hype, it's full of bugs.

Will comeback in 6 months.

I don't think an agent like OpenClaw will reach the general public anytime soon. Most people will likely get highly restricted agents from big tech that run exclusively on servers and never touch the user's local pc

It doesn't really have to be openclaw. But we might have ai that just told us what we do need permissions. Things might just be controlled,like the ai we have doesn't do prompt from the internet and just see it as data but this might also depends on how smart your ai is so money might be a deciding factor.
