“Yeah, I was thinking about this, and I'm going to talk about a category of books that I've started to recommend to people, which is classic children's books. If you are a parent out there, you know there's so much children's book slop out there, graphic novels with like seven words per page, the writing's atrocious. Even in the older years, it doesn't get better. And we've just started pulling off the shelf Treasure Island. We are reading Alice in Wonderland. We're reading some of the Shakespearean comedies. The language is so much more sophisticated, and my kids still get it, and they still think it's funny. And so I feel like we have dumbed down what we expect of our children, especially in what they consume from a media perspective. And so I'm just going to the classics and we're having a really good time. So I highly recommend pulling some of those classic children's books off the shelf. Even if they feel a little bit more advanced, my kids have been loving them.”

“While I don't recommend people edit the soul by hand, it's sometimes really useful to edit the tools document by hand because there's just some nuances in how you might want it to read your calendar or search the web, or I use Linear as tasking kind of substrate for my agents, how you might want it to use Linear.”

“I don't know, probably your metaphor of the assistant, multiple assistants using the same computer, maybe not as helpful, but in theory it's like, "Okay, if they could just be in the same place and use the same computer and share, that's fine.”

“Yeah. And I'll give this tip to some of the big large language model providers out there and these broad consumer products like ChatGPT, like Claude is, I don't know if you've experienced this, you see, for example, working with ChatGPT and every new chat ends with, "If you want me to, I can tell you this mystery, like this next step.”

“I think also, by the way, the reason it was called Clawdbot, I'm guessing is, like what makes this special is it gives hands to the AI versus just a chat where you talk, you can actually do stuff.”

“Maybe just as a final motivation to people that are like, "Okay, this all sounds wonderful, I got to go eat some dinner," Just to give people a sense of why this is important and worth their time in spite of all these other products launching, Jensen, the founder of Nvidia, just like the other day, he's just like, "Every company in the world needs to have a Claw strategy.”

“Claude clearly is trying to, instead of acquiring OpenClaw, they're just like, "We will build it.”

“Where people stumble with OpenClaw is they think they can throw any task at a single agent and get great results, and then they get really frustrated. I won't sugarcoat it.”

“Oh, other magic trick that again people might not know is your OpenClaw files are in a hidden folder in Mac. And so I think you press command shift period when you're in Finder, and it'll show you your hidden files.”

“What I think is interesting about OpenClaw, in particular, is one, it's open source, which means you can actually with, pretty little effort, understand what's happening behind the scenes, which is different from a hosted solution or a closed source solution.”

“Something that it does for me is when I have a meeting somewhere, I don't know how it knows this, but it's like, "You should leave now.”

“Will it not? And if it can't solve a problem, I think where I've come and I would advise people to do is just walk away from expecting it to solve that problem and give it another problem to solve.”

“They would be able to see all my public events like any other calendar, any other person in my team would be able to see. And then because Polly, she's my EA, I'm going to share edit access with my calendar so she can drop things on my calendar or remove them or move them around.”

“Whoever figures that out, I think is going to have something really special or maybe we'll all have something that we all run and lovingly craft at home, and that will be special too. So I will just say for folks, this has been one of those really intense moments where my eyes open and I think, "Wow, this is going to change my personal life and my professional life in a way I could not have predicted three years ago.”

“I feel like I'm using these things that I built, and that sense of crafting your personal agent experience, as opposed to giving your tasks to a general purpose agent, I think just changes the user agent interaction in a very interesting way.”

“I actually didn't give it access to even read my email because in theory, somebody could trick it to tell them everything about the email that it sees.”

“And so I just think the web is hostile to agents right now. And we're going to have to rethink what is the interface of the web to be more agent friendly because I think we skip ahead a couple years and the number one user of websites are going to be people's agents.”

“I use iTerm, but you can open your terminal and then you just paste it in, press enter, and I already have Homebrew and some dependencies installed. And so it's going to install OpenClaw and then it should drop you into a step- by-step onboarding.”

“While I don't recommend people edit the soul by hand, it's sometimes really useful to edit the tools document by hand because there's just some nuances in how you might want it to read your calendar or search the web, or I use Linear as tasking kind of substrate for my agents, how you might want it to use Linear. And so the tools markdown file is a really useful one.”

“So Brave is the one that ships with OpenClaw. I use Exa just because I already have an Exa account. You use Perplexity.”

“One, because they're really hardened against prompt injection and some security risks out of the box, and, two, you're just going to get a better experience. So I use a lot of Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.6 and GPT-5.4.”
