OpenClaw Is the New Linux(openclaw.rocks)

    I like your analogy of OpenClaw==Linux. Paradoxically, Linux was simple and secure in its early days due to (among other reasons) being open source from (almost) the beginning. Vulnerabilities were found and fixed by the community. OpenClaw has some of this, but it's built on a foundation that was never intended for a secure trust layer (LLMs).

    One-click, standard, and secure containers (especially for a non-technical audience) are a super idea.

      Yes, good point. I think OpenClaw actually helps here by making a broader audience aware of the security risks of using "unchained" LLMs. Securing a probabilistic system is a fundamentally different challenge than auditing kernel code, and we're all still figuring that out.

      I am optimistic that OpenClaw will actually drive a lot of security tooling around the use of LLMs from here

    Author here. I run OpenClaw.rocks, a hosting service for OpenClaw AI agents.

    The parallel I'm drawing: LLMs are commoditizing the way x86 hardware did in the early 90s. What's missing is the open-source operating system on top - the layer that connects a token prediction API to your actual tools and messaging apps. That's what OpenClaw does.

    I know the analogy is imperfect (and I address where it breaks in the post). Happy to discuss the technical architecture, the agent layer thesis, or where you think I'm wrong.

      oh, which browser are you using if I might ask? I can't reproduce it
