Re: OpenClaw – Moltbot Renamed Again
#33Earlier quoted context omitted.
As the article says, it’s a 2 month old weekend project. It’s doing a lot better than my two month old weekend projects.
While weekend project may be correct, I think it gives a slightly wrong impression of where this came from. Peter Steinberger is the creator who created and sold PSPDFKit, so he never has to work again. I'm listening to a podcast he was on right now and he talks about staying up all night working on projects just because he's hooked. According to him made 6,600 commits in January alone. I get the impression that he p…
Number of commits doesn't mean much.

#34Okay whether its clawdbot or moltbot or openclaw
Literally the top 2 HN posts are about this. Either it having book, or the first comment on it showing it create religion or now this.
Can we stop all of this hype around Clawdbot itself? Even HN is vulnerable to it.

#38Not getting the lobster references, is that to do with lobste.rs ?
Re: OpenClaw – Moltbot Renamed Again
#39So i feel like this might be the most overhyped project in the past longer time.
I don't say it doesn't "work" or serves a purpose - but well i read so much about this beein an "actual intelligence" and stuff that i had to look into the source.
As someone who spends actually a definately to big portion of his free time researching thought process replication and related topics in the realm of "AI" this is not really more "ai" than any other so far.
Just my 3 cents.
Re: OpenClaw – Moltbot Renamed Again
#40I would have stood my ground on the first name longer. Make these legal teams do some actual work to prove they are serious. Wait until you have no other option. A polite request is just that. You can happily ignore these. The 2nd name change is just inexcusable. It's hard to take a project seriously when a random asshole on Twitter can provoke a name change like this. Leads me to believe that identity is more import…
It wasn't just one random asshole, tons of people were saying that "Moltbot" is a terrible name. (I agree, although I didn't tweet at him about it.)
OpenClaw is a million times better.
