And people rich enough to stupidly link those AI agents to their bank accounts.

I need to pay more attention to how rich people are using AI personally....

    Oh, would you like to see something gross?

    Brandon Wang's recent blog post, "A sane but extremely bull case on Clawdbot / OpenClaw"

    You know it's bad when even Hacker News, a website funded by venture capital demon Mark Andreessen, calls him out:

    Fine article but a very important fact comes in at the end — the author has a human personal assistant. It doesn't fundamentally change anything they wrote, but it shows how far out of the ordinary this person is. They were a Thiel Fellow in 2020 and graduated from Phillips Exeter, roughly the most elite high school in the US.

    Other comments point out his opulence: hotels charging $850 a night, reservations at expensive bay area restaurants, buying $80 gloves, and typing in lowercase because "sam altman types like this, so this is what is cool to the agi believers."
