OpenClaw was the beginning of this shift from chatbot to always-on agent.
Core idea: one persistent assistant that can act across apps, keep context, and actually get things done rather than wait for another prompt.
Now you see that same product direction in Muse, Instinct and Microsoft’s new Copilot/Autopilot.
Remaining q: OpenAI hired OpenClaw creator Peter Steinberger to build the next generation of personal agents. So where is OAI's version?
Microsoft shipped a really compelling product on top of @OpenClaw today. We worked with them since March to make the codebase ready for large-scale deployments, they are a great partner and open-source contributor. 🙏🦞
