What a weekend - @openclaw installation was a hot mess, so doubled-down on @claudeai cowork with dispatch which turned into a disaster with projects bleeding into each other. The simulation is trying to tell me something

@DaimonLaw @philkellr @openclaw I’ll definitely give it a other go when it starts to become a reliable option

@philkellr @Numbersix @openclaw Agreed - spend any time in the Discord channel or chatting with folks like myself who've been in the trenches with it and there's plenty going on. Just needs some kinks ironed out and we'll see serious Cambrian explosions. The Appstore approval backlog is a portent...

I'm tired of OpenClaw Every 2-3 days I have a major moment which I show to my friends: "look what AI agents can do", but then the other 90% is pure frustration and me cursing at my own AI agent for which I spent hours choosing a beautiful name and profile picture. I was fun at start: I added telegram, added voice input, then adding skills even with just voice prompting was a bliss. Then dementia hit. Facts from 48+ hours ago were forgotten. I installed a 3 level memory system. It felt like a huge hack, it barely works, I encounter bugs every day which I'm fixing. Then it breaks with every update. Not all of it, but little things. The WhatsApp integration is just insanity. After putting in every markdown file that it shouldn't reply to my friends (IN CAPITAL LETTERS) it happily started to chat with my wife and my goddaughter. And from today even claude subscription stops working. I feel like a failure! I see all the success stories left and right, YT vids and blog posts "I got it to work and here's what the AI agent does for me", and for me I'm still spending 5x the time fixing my agent than just doing the stuff by hand 🤷

@philkellr @openclaw Definitely massive potential, but not yet the AI operating system we’re all waiting for

@Numbersix @openclaw I still think there's more than that but we'll see

@kareem_carr AI tools just compress the amount of time it takes to get the work done -only the simples apps can be built without a human dev in the loop. I guess we’ll end up producing more software for the same amount of time t of effort

I keep hearing that software engineers don’t write much code anymore and it’s mostly AI now. Can any software engineers confirm how true this is? Do you just drink coffee and watch Claude code all day now?

Both are great at building the first 90% of a complex new application. The last 10% where you need to work through edge cases get gnarly for both. My recent experience says Opus has a better grip on pushing through that last 10% - possibly because the tooling around it is better (when using a harness like Claude code / Codex)

gpt5.4 seems 10x smarter if you use it right after using opus, the delta is really quite insane

Claude Cowork just deleted 1.5 terabytes of my image archive. But thankfully it was really apologetic - so that’s alright then… @claudeai

@NoahKingJr Penis model

Name a job that AI can’t steal

@elonmusk @NoahKingJr For the simulation

@NoahKingJr We are the bootloader

Are we training AI, or is AI training us?

Every day is a new simulation, so blaze your brightest incase tomorrow doesn’t load #SimulationTheory

@elonmusk @beffjezos Closer to the simulation

@beffjezos 4.20 is still a beta release

Grok 4.20 is quite smart but for coding / LaTeX iteration is unusable in the web interface. xAI desperately needs a file navigator system like Cursor or Factory to make its models usable for real work rather than chat

@elonmusk @XFreeze Let’s get better grok tools for this

@XFreeze Coding will become a generic product this year

Elon says Grok Code is on track to outperform Claude at coding - by June this year Progress is expected to bring it close to Claude by April, roughly equal by May, and potentially ahead once Colossus 2 is fully running "By then, like a self-driving car that drives perfectly, it will be hard to tell the difference between the leading coding models, as they will so rarely get anything wrong"

Today's guest is @Rizstanford youtu.be/AwAyD7kx-HM #simulationtheory

Nick Bostrom suggests that is we are in a simulated reality, then the physics of our parent (base) reality might be completely different to the physics in our Matrix...

@Sassafrass_84 @elonmusk @grok Already switched - much better

Chat GPT is racist and completely left wing ideology. More reason to make the switch to using Grok. @grok is better.

@elonmusk @PeterDiamandis And hopefully not exiting the simulation

@PeterDiamandis We are entering the singularity

Here's something to remember: AI is the slowest and most incorrect it will EVER be now. Today is the dumbest AI you'll use for the rest of your life.

@elonmusk @glennbeck Let’s break the simulation

@glennbeck True

Perspective here: @elonmusk pays over $10B more than any other human in history. Trophy? Instead, when he started exposing corruption they tried to put him out of business. His 10B payment will cover A FEW DAYS of our Interest payment on our 34T debt. We don’t have a revenue problem. WE HAVE A CORRUPTION and SPENDING PROBLEM. Pass the Save America Act.

@elonmusk @grok What was the passage in the Carl Sagan book Contact which talked of a circle being drawn within the visual printout of an extreme prime number

@elonmusk Exactly this image was mentioned in the 1985 book called Contact by Carl Sagan. I think Elon is running the simulation
