Stop it! You’re making too much sense! Stop it! Incentivize the behavior you want right? If they wanted genuine content from authors of all sizes, it seems like a pretty straight forward allocation. Provide a % of boost to accounts with low follower counts to help them expand their reach.

You get what you incentivize for. Right now there is zero incentive to build an audience because followers don’t matter. Right now there is zero incentive to add your thoughts to a topic because “first to post” and dedup means first post gets the lion share. Huge incentive to automate and be “first to post” exhausting for human creators and encouraging use of AI. Zero incentive to post on your niche because the only thing that matters seems to be viral slop. X used to be known for thinkers. Now it’s automated news aggregators that gets the views with zero thoughts. Articles seem to get traction, but are a poor substitute for the pulse of seeing posts from those you follow all chiming in on one topic. Network effects dead. There is definitely some kind of suppression going on, probably related to the block signal. I’ve run multiple tests with accounts my size, posting identical content down to the minute, and consistently get 5 to 1 to 10 to 1 suppression.

Algorithm is better today than 3 months ago?

@ThrillaRilla369 Yes. It’s like riding a bike and one of the greatest skills I’m glad I have!

Be honest... could you jump into a stick-shift car and drive it without a problem right now? 🚘

@XHabib That is a crazy good idea!

It would be awesome if 𝕏 had an Original Content timeline filter Most large accounts would be done for

@AlexFinn Is Hermes doing something OpenClaw isn't for you, or do they just own different lanes?

OpenClaw and Hermes agent on the right, Crimson Desert on the left Multiple agents autonomously building businesses while I play the sickest video game ever made This is the future Your AI employees go out and create value while you enjoy the finer things in life I love 2026

@jessegenet @openclaw This is so weird because I was just thinking about this the other day and didn't think to ask my agent to consider this approach. What do you see Agent #2 doing that Agent #1 wasn't?

My @openclaw spawned a new @openclaw agent on its machine AND got it talking in our comms platform without me touching the mac mini 🤯

@iyoushetwt @nikitabier any chance this type of post can make the list of unacceptable use soon?

@VANIXQBIT_LLP @robinebers 🤦‍♂️

@onecharteroak @robinebers Opena ai investment bought them high stock price i guess

Claude is replacing OpenClaw and i’m honestly here for it

@sandeepnailwal I love the mirror analogy man. I think this whole debate about LLM consciousness speaks more to human psychology than current AI capability. People want to believe something is looking back because it's lonelier if nothing is.

LLM based AI is NOT conscious. I co-founded a company literally called Sentient, we're building reasoning systems for AGI, so believe me when I say this. I keep seeing smart people, people I genuinely respect, come out and say that AI has crossed into some kind of awareness. That it feels things, that we should worry about it going rogue. And i think this whole conversation tells us way more about ourselves than it does about AI. These models are wild, i won't pretend otherwise. But feeling human and actually having inner experience are completely different things and we're confusing the two because our brains literally can't help it. We evolved to see minds everywhere and now that wiring is misfiring on language models. I grew up in a philosophical tradition that has thought about consciousness longer than almost any other, and this is the part that really frustrates me about the current conversation. The entire framing of "does AI have consciousness?" assumes consciousness is something you build up to by adding more layers of complexity. In Vedantic philosophy it's the opposite. You don't build toward consciousness. Consciousness is already there, more fundamental than matter or energy. Everything else, including computation, is downstream of it. When someone tells me AI is "waking up" because it generated a paragraph that felt real, what they're telling me is how thin our understanding of consciousness has gotten. We've reduced a question humans have wrestled with for thousands of years to "did the output sound like it had feelings?" It's math that has gotten really good at predicting what a conscious being would say and do next. Calling that consciousness cheapens something that Vedantic, Buddhist, Greek and Sufi thinkers spent millennia actually sitting with. We didn't build something that thinks. We built a mirror and right now a lot of very smart people are mistaking the reflection for something looking back.

There are so many people posting about this guy! His lack of accountability (everyone knows you can't use other accounts to promote your own account) is very annoying. I'm not against people using X to make their money, to each their own, but this guy just needs to be banned for being so lame.

I think X should instantly ban anyone who decided to make tweeting their full-time job

@trq212 It's like the latest version of over-engineering a solution.

an increasingly large part of the job of an engineer is deciding how much compute to spend on a problem

@_davideast thanks for taking our feedback, you're owning it well and its not a reflection on you by any extent. I can only speak for myself; I'm really rooting for Google to solve this design challenge because its the one facet where you can't use an LLM if it always pulls you back to the mean. Thanks for your effort here!

You can definitely get good results and more importantly, specific results. This is something I'm working on right now. I'm not claiming it to be the most amazing design but it's exactly what I need. I'm working on how to guides so if you're interested let me know. Please send any feedback my way.

I just tried Google Stitch and while it’s a really cool concept the output is really underwhelming. I asked it to make the supastarter landing page look better and more modern and it came up with the classic AI slop design

Thanks for the quick response. I'll check it out. I'd like to settle on something that feels more secure and assembled. I don't mind the work of learning and maintaining OC, but in my business, I have more and more people asking about these type of agents and the current crop is still too technical for most.

@onecharteroak Yes thats been a huge bonus. Claw on my phone meant screen mirroring in which is really hard to work through on such a tiny screen.

First week with zero OpenClaw. every routine, every automation runs on Perplexity Computer now. No command line. No babysitting. Time to service has cratered. I didn't switch for the hype. I switched because my time kept disappearing into a black hole. Now it doesn't.

@IKnowSoftware @businessbarista This personal touch is missing in the space these days. You sound like an outlier (in a good way), not the rule.

I’m a retained headhunter who has been building high perf software teams for 20 years. “Excited to talk Alex we still good for tomorrow?” It’s often the case those 20% missing the appointment might be the most busy with other appointments and busy candidates are the most sought after so I’m going to confirm the appointment instead of just waiting to see if they show up or not.

I'm sort of baffled. I've been spending 30 hours a week interviewing strategists & engineers. Probably 20% of candidates never show up for the call. Is this a generational thing? Is it just that people are poor communicators? Imo, nothing more entitled than no showing to a job interview.

I think this more of an unfortunate byproduct of the entire job search process in 2026. Candidates spent time building thoughtful resumes, preparing responses for behavioral questions, etc. only to be ghosting by or auto-selected out by recruiters, HR teams, and systems. The response is creating strategies using LLMs to play the game the way the "new rules" have been written by companies, which now has reached the "system vs. system" job hiring process. While I agree with you that a no-show is very weak, its also possible that the person has cast a VERY wide, automated net, because job hunting for many is somewhat of a numbers game.

I did an experiment in the fall where I set up agents to act as a small company of people; gave each one its own persona, and began asking them to work together. It quickly became apparent that it was essentially theatre. I think as long as you are using the same foundation model, you're only doing this for your own mental benefit, not the LLM's.

I’m surely being stupid. But if AI is rather unconstrained by expertise or capacity or to some extent speed Why do we need to divide tasks or departments to 9 agents ( the marketing agent, the optimization agent etc ) to each do one thing. And then another agent to manage the swarm. Cant one agent just be doing it all you know. It seems very skeuomorphic. Will we have HR agents to make sure the agent agents are being looked after ? A office canteen manager agent to feed the agents ? Seems daft

Great write up. I noticed the file attach challenge when I tested it out but I was able to ultimately get it to send me the file in dispatch. I just had to explicitly ask for it at the end after it said it finished. My test was find a specific word document in /downloads and convert to PDF. Then send it to me.

Anthropic shipped Dispatch yesterday. I tested it for several hours. It's not Cowork on your phone. It's a command center — you send instructions from mobile, Claude orchestrates real work on your desktop. One persistent thread, multiple parallel tasks. The thing worth knowing: the Telephone Game. The Dispatch orchestrator doesn't read your CLAUDE.md. It formulates task prompts on assumptions. Sub-tasks do read it — but by then, the prompt already carries imprecise framing. Fix: mention CLAUDE.md in your Dispatch message. Don't assume it knows your setup. Other gotchas: - Pre-configure connectors on desktop first - "Keep awake" must be on - No file picker on mobile — describe the folder path - Can't attach files yet — email them to yourself Made this guide from my phone. Claude built it on my desktop while I was on the couch.
