The creator has an estimated net worth of $50 million to $200 million prior to Open AI hiring him. If you listen to any interviews with him, doesn't really seem like the type of person who's driven by money and I get the impression that no matter what OpenAI is paying him, his life will remain pretty much unchanged (from a financial perspective at least). He also still talks very fondly about Claude Code and openly a…

You're telling me that a person that's greedy enough to have a net worth of several tens of millions doesn't care about money? Pull the other one, it's got bells on.

The parent's model is right. You can mitigate a great deal with a basic zero trust architecture. Agents don't have direct secret access, and any agent that accesses untrusted data is itself treated as untrusted. You can define a communication protocol between agents that fails when the communicating agent has been prompt injected, as a canary. More on this technique at https://sibylline.dev/articles/2026-02-15-agenti…

>You can define a communication protocol between agents that fails when the communicating agent has been prompt injected Good luck with that.

Now we do computing like we play Sim City: sketching fuzzy plans and hoping those little creatures behave the way we thought they might. All the beauty and guarantees offered by a system obeying strict and predictable rules goes down the drain, because life's so boring, apparently.

We spent a ton of time removing subjectivity from this field… only to forcefully shove it in and punish it for giving repeatable objective responses. Wild.

So what is a "claw" exactly? An ai that you let loose on your email etc? And we run it in a container and use a local llm for "safety" but it has access to all our data and the web?

The next hyped bullshit de jure spewing out of the ass of the AI bros, cause the hype cycle on agents is starting to die down. Can't have 30 billion dollar circular deals while setting aflame barrels of cash without the hype machine churning through the Next Thing!

It turns into probabilistic security. For example, nothing in Bitcoin prevents someone from generating the wallet of someone else and then spending their money. People just accept the risk of that happening to them is low enough for them to trust it.

> nothing in Bitcoin prevents someone from generating the wallet of someone else Maybe nothing in Bitcoin does, but among many other things the heat death of the universe does. The probability of finding a key of a secure cryptography scheme by brute force is purely of mathematical nature. It is low enough that we can for all practical intends just state as a fact that it will never happen. Not just to me, but to abs…
