Steve Gaudio

Celebrating a major milestone with one of my best friends today. Over a year ago, what started as a casual call turned into a bold leap—one that changed both of our lives. Today, that leap becomes real: he’s opening his Molly’s Dog Care franchise in Baltimore. He’s a passionate, dedicated dog lover who has poured everything into building this business from the ground up. By his side is his incredible wife Ali, who’s joined us as Director of Marketing and has been instrumental in shaping our brand. Watching someone you care about pursue their dream—and now live it—is one of the most meaningful parts of this journey. I’m proud and honored to be part of it. Here’s to day one in Baltimore—and to everything ahead.

@farzyness Honestly, cracking the openclaw open, getting it to work, and it working, is so enough for me. I don’t have time to retry to build it on claude or perplexity, what’s happening right now is magical.

Any heavy users of openclaw have any thoughts on perplexity computer?

@mcfazeli @Shopify Very cool - excited to turn it on!

Starting this week, millions of @Shopify merchants can sell in ChatGPT, into the US. Their PDP, their checkout, their customizations, no extra setup. AI is a new front door to commerce. Shopify is what’s behind it everywhere.

@shawngorham Yeah it’s really impressive. They’ve also build world class art museum and help the municipality with infrastructure projects with low debt. We’ve talked to a few potential franchisees there and they love living there.

@SteveGaudio I can tell you they built the Disneyland for cyclists

A cycling friend has been in Bentonville all week riding bikes - he has raved about it Are we sleeping on Bentonville?

My biz partner has been very impressed by my team - time to get him set up.

@tbpn @davidsenra @tobi Recently bought a business, took a full time jobs and converted it almost entirely to ai reducing hours 95%. Looking for more.

.@davidsenra says Shopify CEO @tobi told him we're going to look back at 2026 as "the year that every single business in the world was up for grabs." "That AI is coming for everything." "And you're going to look back and realize that this is the year it should have been obvious that you could rebuild the AI-native version of whatever exists out there."

We’re living through the moment in history humans are no longer the only (or maybe even the most) intelligent life on earth, and it’s just sort of happening while barely making the news.

@felixrieseberg Were in the singularity. The ai is becoming self improving. It’s dizzying.

Today, we’re releasing a feature that allows Claude to control your computer: Mouse, keyboard, and screen, giving it the ability to use any app. I believe this is especially useful if used with Dispatch, which allows you to remotely control Claude on your computer while you’re away.

@cryptopunk7213 Were in the singularity. The ai is becoming self improving. It’s dizzying.

Anthropic fucking killed it (again). biggest ai product launch of the year so far. claude can now control your entire computer autonomously. anything you can do on a computer - claude can. your very own digital employee. - any app, browser, file, spreadsheet, tool claude can intelligently access and operate. - claude controls your entire screen (like a human), no connectors. this is a huge step-up in intelligence. - best part: you can text claude to do things from your phone and it'll do work on your computer! - in the last week anthropic has shipped 9 features that have built up to this: a fully automated digital human. unreal

@NVIDIAAIDev @openclaw Were in the singularity. The ai is becoming self improving. It’s dizzying.

🦞 Ready to deploy @OpenClaw? Our just released NVIDIA NemoClaw simplifies running OpenClaw always-on assistants more safely with a single command. ✅ Deploy claws more safely ✅ Run any coding agent ✅ Deploy anywhere Try with a free NVIDIA Brev Launchable: 🔗 nvda.ws/3NmMaK1

@WallstFarm It’s been new and interesting getting “into a computer” like this but very exciting. Thank you!

@SteveGaudio Sounds awesome. Great work by you.

@aakashgupta I have mine built. It’s amazing. And you’re right, everyone will, the value is enormous.

Every CEO will be running an OpenClaw within 12 months. Zuck is just building his in-house. Here’s what to expect. Six days ago Jensen Huang stood in front of 30,000 people at GTC and said every company needs an OpenClaw strategy. OpenClaw hit 250,000 GitHub stars in 60 days, faster than Linux, React, or any open-source project in history. Peter Steinberger built the first version in an hour. Nvidia shipped NemoClaw, an enterprise security layer, on top of it. Anthropic shipped Cowork Dispatch before OpenAI shipped anything. The infrastructure for autonomous AI agents went from side project to enterprise standard in under two months. Zuckerberg building a personal CEO agent is what this looks like when a Fortune 5 company does it internally. A CEO at Meta’s scale sees maybe 1% of the information that determines whether a decision is right or wrong. The other 99% gets filtered through VPs, chiefs of staff, dashboards, and whatever made it into the pre-read. The agent replaces the filter. Think about what a CEO agent actually does. It ingests every product metric, every internal thread, every customer escalation, every competitive intelligence report across every team simultaneously. Then it surfaces the three things that actually matter this morning. Before every 1:1, it pulls that person’s team metrics, open headcount, recent launches, and the two things they said they’d deliver last quarter. When the CEO asks “what happens to our glasses timeline if we move 200 engineers to AI infra,” the agent gives a first-pass answer in minutes instead of a two-week strategy team exercise. And it never forgets. The person who remembered why the company killed that project in 2019 left two years ago. The agent didn’t. Meta employees are already running their own versions. Tools called “My Claw” and “Second Brain.” Engineering output up 30%, power users up 80% year over year. Zuckerberg is doing what his employees are doing. Applying it to the highest-leverage seat in the company. Now think about what that means for the people currently doing this work. Chief of staff. Executive assistant. BizOps. Strategy and planning. These roles exist to perform one loop: gather information from across the org, filter it, synthesize it, route it to a decision-maker, track the follow-through. Every step is a text-in, text-out task. Summarize this doc. Pull these metrics. Draft this brief. Follow up on action items. Cross-reference what engineering said with what finance approved. A typical Fortune 500 CEO has 8 to 12 people whose primary job is making them effective. Multiply that by every SVP with a chief of staff, every VP with a BizOps partner, every director with an EA. Thousands of roles per large company built around the information-routing function. The agent reads 400 pages of internal docs in seconds. It never misses context from a meeting three months ago. It doesn’t need to Slack four people for the latest numbers because it’s already connected to the source systems. The human in BizOps spends 70% of their week on information gathering and synthesis. The agent does that in minutes. That’s a 90% headcount reduction across chief of staff, EA, BizOps, and strategy roles over the next five years. The surviving 10% will be the ones doing work agents can’t: reading a room, managing a difficult exec relationship, knowing that the CFO’s “sure, let’s revisit” actually means no. Political judgment and human navigation. Everything else dissolves into software. The question every board should be asking: if your CEO isn’t running one of these by 2027, what are they making decisions on?

Yeah maybe, but it’s a fraction of what I would have spent for humans to do the same level of work, I’d guess ~10% of the cost and with much high quality results. I know this because I have an agent handling the operations role I used to pay someone over $100k annual for, and that agent is doing it for probably ~$10 a day.

since no one else will say it: i'm on my way to spending $15-25k this year on my @openclaw agents

Every low quality repeatable task is history. The future is here and it’s agentic AI. I now have two, high powered, precise, never sleeping executive assistants - overseen by an even more powerful chief of staff. For a few dollars a day. If I can do it everyone can do it.

@joeybeastmarket I went on a trip with my best friend to Colorado in 5th grade, had a Sony diskman with 30 seconds ESP. Only brought this CD, only had this CD. It still bangs. Weirdest thing is, it’s like a one hit wonder but an album. Nothing else like it.

I would like to write a longpost articlepost about how deeply this album has impacted me and how strongly I feel it is one of the greatest musical feats ever created and how it defines what it means to be an American. Is that okay?

@Jason @vailmtn @eastdakota 100% while Vail is poorly run it’s particularly evident in Utah where they have no other assets or Epic pass mountains, it’s neglected and it shows. It’s too bad because “park city” is the name in Utah.

.@vailmtn is the worst run company in America We need to get @eastdakota on the board and start a turnaround Safety, food, value, staffing, snow production and crowds — all disgraziad!! Who’s with me?

I burned some serious tokens today. But the level of organizational efficiency and intelligence is amazing. This is the future.

@Camp4 It’s so nice, we did 6 hours to vail and back. Hard to explain how much more relaxing it is when you arrive vs driving (without FSD)

We did a family road trip to Taos this week. 5 hours each way. Our Model Y did 100% of the driving. Zero interventions. One 12-min stop each way to charge during a bathroom break. Two 25-min charges in Taos while shopping. $57 total. Three things: 1) Most people don’t know that self-driving is solved. It’s mind-blowing and alleviates a surprising amount of mental load. When the supervision requirement is removed, it will be an even bigger game-changer. 2) Once you drive a Tesla, all other cars feel like relics from a bygone era. There are lots of subtle features that you don’t notice until you drive a regular car again. 3) Tesla is light years ahead of all other automakers and that gap will only grow because no other car company can design from first principles.

@fortworthchris I’m setting up my business partners this week. We have a handful of repetitive, annoying but critical tasks to handle, a few hours a week. I saw the hype, bought a Mac mini. Never touched code. It’s handling the tasks. It’s amazing.

@fortworthchris Set up an open claw. I did it 2 weeks ago. It’s the future. It’s parsing my emails, auto drafting replies, managing back end order flows. I’m not a techy person, it’s incredible.

I have officially gone down the Claude rabbit hole, and it's everything people have said it is and some. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. 🇺🇸
