I was tinkering around with Clawdbot but it’s a little overwhelming. What do you use an app for when it can do everything? Started to get worried that I was opening up a huge security risk, so decided to scrap it. Will watch how these tools evolve.
@manton I've also been watching it from afar for a few weeks and it's super interesting. But I would never install it myself because of the security implications. I'm also wondering if any of these tools, even when coming from Apple or Google will be useful if they can't be trusted?
@manton started testing it yesterday. Got my Discord channel up and running. Yes, it’s a bit overwhelming. Yes, security wise, it might become a nightmare. Yet, I see a lot of potential for learning about agentic capabilities.
@manton Honestly I'm not sure how I feel about this app overall. It feels like a neat party trick so far, but it seems like it's mostly just generating text files to give itself instructions, which won't really scale.
@manton interesting. I have to keep an eye on this… And by calendar? What’s that? Google Calendar or my actual system calendar if I want?
@slison I didn’t experiment with the calendar integration but I bet it can work with either Google Calendar or your local calendar. Seems to be able to plug into many things.
@numericcitizen This is how the alien virus begins to reproduce within our electronic bodies. (Joking… I think.)
@manton I guess that if it can write apps for itself it can write anything to enable it to hook into anything else you want. Very interesting and yet scary in a device with internet access that just needs to be communicated with through your messaging app or code injected within its web browsing.
