I've been using all three AI agents. OpenClaw, Perplexity Computer, and Claude Cowork. Here's what I've found so far: OpenClaw is the most powerful if you're technical, love tinkering and have a ton of time to mess around. Open source, self-hosted, you pick your models. You can make it do basically anything. But you're also the one building and maintaining all of it (as its always breaking). Claude Cowork feels the most like having an actual coworker (for 1 specific task). It runs on your Mac, works with your local files, and the plugins for legal, finance, and HR are legit. Downside is it only uses Anthropic models and your laptop has to stay open. Perplexity Computer is the easiest one to actually get work done (imo) with tons of models running behind the scenes, plugs right into Gmail, Slack, Notion, and it runs in the cloud so it keeps going while you sleep. Tradeoff is you're living in their ecosystem. (oh and their local browser control needs major work, it's unreliable) so: Want full control? OpenClaw. Want a desktop co-pilot? Cowork. Want to hand off real tasks and walk away? Perplexity Computer. These tools are changing weekly though, im just trying to keep up. What did I miss?

If you are famous, you should be doing 4 things right now: 1. Create an AI version of yourself 2. Start a paid newsletter 3. Trademark what you can 4. Protect your NIL Go forth and prosper

By far my biggest advice to anyone trying to adopt AI properly: 1. Pay a little bit of money to Anthropic 2. Download Claude Code 3. Open Claude Code 4. Press 'Shift-Tab' until it says 'plan mode on' 5. Open Voice Memo on your iPhone. Just talk about all the things you want to accomplish. When you think you are done, just keep talking. Make sure it is at least 10 minutes, hopefully longer 6. Send this Voice Memo to your computer 7. Download MacWhisper and use it to transcribe this voice memo. Trust me, you will want MacWhisper and will use it later a lot 8. Type into Claude Code: "I have never used you before but I talked about some things. I will paste those things in below. Please read the things and ask me any questions you need to in order to help me figure out how to use you to be awesome. Ask me lots of questions until I tell you I am done" 9. Then paste in the transcript 10. Then press enter Then just let Claude take the wheel, and them please send me a DM if this works. Also, if this just sounds crazy, just literally take this entire message and paste it into whatever AI you are using and say 'some weird person told me to paste this into you, I want to use it, but I don't know how. What should I do?' I am just trying to help you get started. Curiosity and persistence are the most important things.

Someone stole $630,000 worth of Blueprint creatine in an elaborate heist. The driver used a false ID to pick up the units from our factory, then turned off the tracker and stopped responding to calls. The stolen creatine monohydrate was precision-dosed and third-party tested for purity and heavy metals. 15,918 units of pure grade A powder. If anyone has information, lmk. Even if we don't recover the creatine, I'd at least like to know this person's health stats. Here’s a rendering of what we suspect the perp might look like.

AI is going to drain a lot of moats.

Macrohard or Digital Optimus is a joint xAI-Tesla project, coming as part of Tesla’s investment agreement with xAI. Grok is the master conductor/navigator with deep understanding of the world to direct digital Optimus, which is processing and actioning the past 5 secs of real-time computer screen video and keyboard/mouse actions. Grok is like a much more advanced and sophisticated version of turn-by-turn navigation software. You can think of it as Digital Optimus AI being System 1 (instinctive part of the mind) and Grok being System 2. (thinking part of the mind). This will run very competitively on the super low cost Tesla AI4 ($650) paired with relatively frugal use of the much more expensive xAI Nvidia hardware. And it will be the only real-time smart AI system. This is a big deal. In principle, it is capable of emulating the function of entire companies. That is why the program is called MACROHARD, a funny reference to Microsoft. No other company can yet do this.

North to the future

I plan on owning my own Tesla Robotaxi fleet one day. And the more I run the numbers, the more I realize this new business could become one of the most powerful income opportunities I've ever seen. This is how I'm thinking about it. Based on many analyst models and Tesla’s long-term vision, a reasonable base case assumption is about ~$30,000 per year in net profit per Robotaxi to the owner. This is after things like Tesla’s platform fee, charging, tires, maintenance, insurance, and cleaning. Of course, the network is still early and Tesla is just beginning to roll this out in pilot programs in a few cities, so there’s no official real-world owner earnings yet... but using reasonable assumptions around utilization, pricing per mile, and operating costs, the math starts to get really interesting. If one Robotaxi can earn around $30,000 per year, here’s what a fleet might look like: • $100,000 per year → about 4 Robotaxis • $500,000 per year → about 17 Robotaxis • $1,000,000 per year → about 34 Robotaxis It may sound a bit crazy at first, but when you break it down, it starts to make more sense. These vehicles could potentially drive 50,000 to 100,000+ miles per year in high demand areas. If the economics land somewhere around $0.25-$0.50 profit per mile after all costs, you end up right around that ~$30k per vehicle per year range. And remember, the Tesla’s Robotaxi network is going to work a lot like Airbnb for cars. You add your vehicle to the network, Tesla handles the software, routing, payments, and rider experience, and they take a platform fee (often modeled around 25-35%). The owner keeps the rest after operating costs. Another thing that makes this interesting is the expected cost of the vehicles themselves. Tesla has talked about the purpose-built Cybercabs costing roughly $25k-$30k and Elon told me production is starting in 1 month! If that’s even close to reality, a fleet capable of generating around $1 million per year could theoretically cost somewhere around $850k-$1M in vehicles. That ROI is pretty freakin good! Now to be clear, none of this is guaranteed. I'm just thinking out loud and sharing it with you... a lot still depends on regulations, how fast unsupervised FSD scales, demand in each city, insurance costs, and how Tesla structures the network. But if the system works the way Elon has described it for years, owning a Robotaxi fleet could become one of the most powerful forms of passive income I've ever seen. And I plan on sharing the numbers with everyone on 𝕏 when the day comes. Personally, that’s why I’m paying such close attention. Bc one day, owning a fleet of autonomous Teslas working for me 24/7 might be the modern version of owning a rental property, except instead of tenants, you’ve got robots driving people around all day while you sleep. This next book of Tesla is going to be so exciting!
