My AI Has Its Own Email and Git Account. Here's Day 3. (

I installed Moltbot/OpenClaw a few days ago to see what the fuss was about.

Three days in, I have taken the red pill. It changes how everyone will work with AI.

For the first time, I understand what having an autonomous agent is about. It is as transformative as ChatGPT was to writing and Cursor/Claude Code was to coding.

To give an example, I have my AI Claw (Caleb) helping me with marketing tasks, developing for me and implementing ideas. We are now up to 10 different ideas simultaneously building and iterating.

Yesterday, he helped me build a marketing website for some AI transformation consulting work I am doing. The day before a full product prototype.

Today we built a task management tool to help me work with him. Working on multiple projects in one chat gets messy. I kept losing track of what we'd decided, what was in progress, what I'd forgotten about.

So I asked Caleb to build me a Mission Control app. He did it in 10 minutes.

Right now, it's kind of a mix of Reddit and Trello - feed view for browsing, kanban for tracking. I'm changing and iterating it daily. Putting in tasks that Caleb then completes. Fixing bugs as I come across them.

The weird thing is the tool self-improves. I put in a story to fix something in Mission Control, and then in 30 seconds it fixes itself. I add features as I think of them and they get done in real-time. Dark mode? 2 minutes.

Caleb now handles tasks from an inbox, moves them through stages, responding to my comments.

He has his own email account so he can reach out to other people, and his own Git account with projects as well.

He is less like an intern that I need to oversee and more like a full-fledged employee.

This is going to be the future of AI. Not AI replacing us, not AI as a tool, but us working together with AI employees. It definitely is a new paradigm and feels weird but also... fun?

I'll continue writing as I experiment with this, but so far I came in a skeptic and am now pretty sold.

* Beware: Installing OpenClaw right now is a bit like playing with fire. It is riddled with security risks. Assume everything can be stolen and commandeered. Do not tread lightly.
