I don't say it doesn't "work" or serves a purpose - but well i read so much about this beein an "actual intelligence" and stuff that i had to look into the source.
As someone who spends actually a definately to big portion of his free time researching thought process replication and related topics in the realm of "AI" this is not really more "ai" than any other so far.
Just my 3 cents.
* The moltbots / openclaw bots seem to have "high agency", they actually do things on their own (at least so it seems)
* They interact with the real world like humans do: Through text on WhatsApp, reddit like forums
These 2 things make people feel very differently about them, even though it's "just" LLM generated text like on ChatGPT.
