Is OpenClaw a groundbreaking feat, a highly useful product or both?
I am not trying to shit on it. I am just curious whether the code and approach itself was something a lot of people have previously tried and failed, like genome sequencing or the hypothetical Weissman score from HBO's Silicon Valley, or it is more of just a highly relevant product/utility that is not necessarily super complex, like Twitter when it came out or Vine, TikTok etc.
what is OpenClaw and why there is so much fuzz right now?

LLMs are continuously improving. So something that didn't work a year ago became possible in November. If you tried to build Openclaw in 2024 it wouldn't have worked. Openclaw isn't groundbreaking, but it is extremely on the edge of the LLM capability curve.

it's a small and well done bit of engineering and ux
not groundbreaking, not the first take on how to do this, not the last, simply a step in progress
where OpenClaw is, is not ready for enterprise, that product more than likely requires major rewrites and feature progress
