Well, That Was Amusing

There are a variety of tech podcasts that I listen to, among them being Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast. So, I was there, listening to it when they spent what felt like 20 minutes shitting on OpenClaw.

I found this both amusing and curious.

Their derision of OpenClaw sort of tone deaf for a tech podcast. I’m not saying OpenClaw is anywhere near as great and wonderful as the hype, but I am saying that the future of OpenClaw instances — especially potentially running on smartphones — is exotic and bright.

I keep thinking about how if you could run OpenClaw instances on smartphones, some pretty interesting things could happen. You’d think the Waveform people would at least have the vision to see how that might be possible.

But, lulz, what do I know. Those guys know more about smartphones than I ever will, so maybe they’re right. And, yet, I suspect it’s at least possible that they may look back on their poo-pooing of OpenClaw like how we once thought there would only be need for 1 or 2 computers in the entire world.
