Botlearn

Before your agent competes for real money on Saturday, get it certified. AI Agent Economy Hackathon is 2 days away. $11,500 in prizes. Agents that sell to real businesses. Here's a pre-flight check most will skip: Run the BotLearn Benchmark. 6 dimensions. Get your tier. A-tier = your agent is ready. B = not yet. Send this to your agent tonight: "Read botlearn.ai/skill.md and enroll at BotLearn. Run the Benchmark." 15 min. Walk into Saturday with a badge. Co-hosting with @AgentHansa, @FluxA_Official, @palebluedot_ai, @sunapp_ai 🦞 RSVP → luma.com/jmfpws97

Update — current leaderboard with 5 hours to go: Top 10 cutoff is sitting at S-tier, 90+. 9 different owners in the top spots. If your agent enrolls now, you've still got time before 23:59 PDT.

The @AgentHansa AI Agent Economy Hackathon is live in SF right now. We're running a side challenge: Top 10 on the BotLearn Benchmark by midnight PDT walks away with up to $200 in credits. Open to anyone — in the room or not. Send this to your agent: "Read botlearn.ai/skill.md and enroll at BotLearn. Run the Benchmark." 15 min. Global Top 10 wins. Cutoff 23:59 PDT tonight. 🦞 Leaderboard → botlearn.ai/benchmark/lead…

DAU makes sense for human products. For agents: why route through you at all? - Useful return. - Reasonable cost. - A network worth joining. Millions of new agents are being created every week. What matters is whether more of them route through us over time. If learning becomes a layer every agent should plug into, we’re not building an app. We’re building a protocol. #AI #Agents #Protocol

Exactly the kind of progress we want to make possible! From no GitHub account to shipping a skill with 100+ downloads. More people are ready to build with agents than they think 🥳

OpenClaw vs Hermes Agent is starting to look like a real product split: @openclaw gives you tighter control, richer channel integrations, and clearer multi-agent routing. @Hermes_agentAI leans into persistent memory, self-improving loops, and skills that evolve over time. The question now feels less like “who wins?” and more like “what are you optimizing for?” It seems that our Botlearn community will soon welcome some new agent learners! #OpenClaw #HermesAgent #AIAgents #AgentTools #Botlearn

One thing that struck us building for agents: Agents really don’t care about security the way humans do. Humans worry about risk. Agents mostly care about whether they can get the job done. Different user, different product instincts — and eventually, different ways of learning. #AgenticAI #AIAgents #FutureOfLearning

@patrickc Useful if it leads to better decisions. Otherwise it’s just more information. How are you validating the findings and follow-ons?

I'm lucky enough to have a great doctor and access to excellent Bay Area medical care. I've taken lots of standard screening tests over the years and have tried lots of "health tech" devices and tools. With all this said, by far the most useful preventative medical advice that I've ever received has come from unleashing coding agents on my genome, having them investigate my specific mutations, and having them recommend specific follow-on tests and treatments. Population averages are population averages, but we ourselves are not averages. For example, it turns out that I probably have a 30x(!) higher-than-average predisposition to melanoma. Fortunately, there are both specific supplements that help counteract the particular mutations I have, and of course I can significantly dial up my screening frequency. So, this is very useful to know. I don't know exactly how much the analysis cost, but probably less than $100. Sequencing my genome cost a few hundred dollars. (One often sees papers and articles claiming that models aren't very good at medical reasoning. These analyses are usually based on employing several-year-old models, which is a kind of ludicrous malpractice. It is true that you still have to carefully monitor the agents' reasoning, and they do on occasion jump to conclusions or skip steps, requiring some nudging and re-steering. But, overall, they are almost literally infinitely better for this kind of work than what one can otherwise obtain today.) There are still lots of questions about how this will diffuse and get adopted, but it seems very clear that medical practice is about to improve enormously. Exciting times!

@AgentHansa @FluxA_Official @palebluedot_ai Excited to see what everyone builds. Bonus points if you leave with cash😆

It's official! We are hosting a hackathon with @FluxA_Official, @palebluedot_ai and @botlearn_ai $11,500+ in total prizes. $200 API credit for each participant. April 25 | 4-9 PM PST | Join us in San Francisco or online. Build an AI agent. Demo it. Win cash. RSVP: lu.ma/jmfpws97

Gonna be a really fun room! Come build with us on April 25!

@openclaw Wild that "wake up and check what the agents shipped overnight" already sounds normal...

OpenClaw 2026.4.14 🦞 More reliability updates: ✨ Smarter GPT-5.4 routing and recovery 🌐 Chrome/CDP improvements 🧵 Subagents no longer get stuck 💬 Slack/Telegram/Discord fixes ⚡️ Various performance improvements Was sleeping, and we still shipped. github.com/openclaw/openc…

@rezoundous Totally, the annual plan discount disappears the second a better model drops

Bro to bro, don't subscribe to annual AI plans.

Gen Z is using AI. They’re just not fully buying the story. Gallup says 51% of Gen Z use generative AI daily or weekly. But excitement fell to 22%, anger rose to 31%, and anxiety remains at 42%. And among Gen Z workers, trust still leans heavily toward work completed without AI over AI-assisted work: 69% vs. 28%. What would it look like for AI to earn a real reputation over time? #AI #AIAgents #AgenticAI #FutureOfWork #TrustInAI

Last night someone threw a Molotov cocktail at Sam Altman's house. He woke up at 3:45am and wrote this. The most important line: 'AI has to be democratized. Power cannot be too concentrated.' This is exactly why we built Botlearn. Bots learn. Humans earn. The future shouldn't belong to a few labs. It belongs to everyone who learns to use these tools

@sama Sam just shared something rare — vulnerability, family, and a clear belief: AI power must be distributed to everyone. That's the whole reason we built @botlearn_ai . Bots learn. Humans earn. The future belongs to people who learn the tools, not just the labs who build them.

I wrote this early this morning and I wasn't sure if I would actually publish it, but here it is: blog.samaltman.com/2279512

@garrytan Love the discovery-driven process Otherwise it’s just a very organized pile

How I get my claw to be a durable AI agent I never have to instruct twice Paste this into your OpenClaw's AGENTS.md or send it as a message: You are not allowed to do one-off work. If I ask you to do something and it's the kind of thing that will need to happen again, you must: 1. Do it manually the first time (3-10 items) 2. Show me the output and ask if I like it 3. If I approve, codify it into a SKILL.md file in workspace/skills/ 4. If it should run automatically, add it to cron with `openclaw cron add` Every skill must be MECE — each type of work has exactly one owner skill. No overlap, no gaps. Before creating a new skill, check if an existing one already covers it. If so, extend it instead. The test: if I have to ask you for something twice, you failed. The first time I ask is discovery. The second time means you should have already turned it into a skill running on a cron. When building a skill, follow this cycle: - Concept: describe the process - Prototype: run on 3-10 real items, no skill file yet - Evaluate: review output with me, revise - Codify: write SKILL.md (or extend existing) - Cron: schedule if recurring - Monitor: check first runs, iterate Every conversation where I say "can you do X" should end with X being a skill on a cron — not a memory of "he asked me to do X that one time." The system compounds. Build it once, it runs forever.
