    • Agents Everywhere: OpenClaw, Codex, and the Post-Chatbot Shift

      Agents Everywhere: OpenClaw, Codex, and the Post-Chatbot Shift
      Feb 20 2026
      We're back! Thanks for listening! ❤️OpenAI’s acquisition of OpenClaw signals the beginning of the end of the ChatGPT era | 2026-02-17VentureBeat argues OpenAI’s OpenClaw move is a pivot from chatbots to agents that take actions across apps and systems. The tension is that OpenClaw’s “fast and loose” openness helped it go viral—so what happens when enterprise guardrails and safety expectations move in?https://venturebeat.com/technology/openais-acquisition-of-openclaw-signals-the-beginning-of-the-end-of-theEvaluating AGENTS.md: Are Repository-Level Context Files Helpful for Coding Agents? (arXiv:2602.11988) | 2026-02-12A new paper tests whether repo-level context files like AGENTS.md actually help coding agents finish tasks—and finds they can backfire. The punchline is a double hit: lower success rates and more than 20% higher inference cost, hinting that “more context” can mean “more confusion.”https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.11988AI Doesn’t Reduce Work—It Intensifies It | 2026-02-09Simon Willison highlights research suggesting AI can increase work intensity instead of easing it, especially when productivity gains mask burnout. The provocative angle is managerial: if AI boosts throughput, how do organizations prevent that extra capacity from turning into an always-on expectation?https://simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/9/ai-intensifies-work/SWE-rebench Leaderboard | n.d.SWE-rebench is trying to solve a messy problem in agent evaluation: benchmarks go stale, and models get “contaminated” by training on the tasks. The leaderboard format makes it feel like a live sport—but the real question is whether continuously refreshed tasks can keep results honest as models ship faster.https://swe-rebench.com/Tidbits/extras:Introducing Claude Opus 4.6 | 2026-02-05Anthropic says Claude Opus 4.6 upgrades its top-tier model for longer, more reliable agentic coding and better performance in large codebases. The headline-grabber is a 1M-token context window in beta—prompting the question of whether bigger memory finally means fewer brittle, lost-in-the-middle failures.https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-opus-4-6Introducing GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark | 2026-02-12OpenAI is pitching GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark as a speed-and-feedback upgrade that makes coding agents feel less like waiting and more like collaborating. The hook is the bet that ultra-fast inference isn’t just convenience—it changes what kinds of multi-step software work people will even attempt with an agent.https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-5-3-codex-spark/Introducing GPT-5.3-Codex | 2026-02-05OpenAI is positioning GPT-5.3-Codex as a coding agent that’s edging toward “do nearly anything on a computer,” not just write snippets. The spicy detail: OpenAI says early versions helped debug and deploy themselves—raising real questions about how fast self-accelerating dev loops can move, safely.https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-5-3-codex/OpenClaw creator Peter Steinberger joins OpenAI | 2026-02-15TechCrunch reports that OpenClaw’s creator, Peter Steinberger, is joining OpenAI as Sam Altman talks up “personal agents” as a core product direction. The interesting tradeoff: Steinberger says he didn’t want to build a standalone company—so can OpenAI keep the project meaningfully open while scaling it?https://techcrunch.com/2026/02/15/openclaw-creator-peter-steinberger-joins-openai/RentAHuman.ai — Hire Humans for AI Agents (MCP Integration) | n.d.RentAHuman.ai is pitching a simple idea: when your agent hits a wall, route the task to a real person instead of failing silently. It frames humans as an on-demand “tool” in the loop—raising a juicy question about where automation ends, and accountability begins.https://rentahuman.aiNanoClaw — Your personal Claude assistant | n.d.NanoClaw positions itself as a lightweight, local-first Claude assistant: one process, a handful of files, and container isolation for safety. The intriguing wrinkle is its WhatsApp-style interface and per-group memory—suggesting the next wave of “agents” may look more like chatrooms than apps.https://nanoclaw.net/(02:48) - Cambryo “Top of Mind” hiring + AI-native developer workflow (non-article) (13:01) - OpenAI / OpenClaw “end of ChatGPT era” (VentureBeat) (13:30) - OpenClaw creator Peter Steinberger joins OpenAI (TechCrunch) (19:46) - NanoClaw — lightweight/local-first Claude assistant alternative (21:43) - Introducing Claude Opus 4.6 (Anthropic) (23:00) - Evaluating **AGENTS.md** repo context files (arXiv:2602.11988) (33:57) - AI Doesn’t Reduce Work—It Intensifies It (Simon Willison) (43:50) - SWE-rebench leaderboard + benchmark contamination / freshness (47:27) - Introducing GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark (OpenAI) (50:00) - Introducing GPT-5.3-Codex (OpenAI) (51:19) - RentAHuman.ai — “hire humans for agents” (MCP integration) (56:36) - Future podcast format + possible rebrand (non-article)

      AWS EU Sovereign Cloud, DNS Belgium leaving AWS, and Moltbot arriving right as Apple picks Gemini
      Feb 2 2026
      Welcome to the first episode of 2026, lovely to be back!(03:22) - Amazon Web Services launches a European sovereign cloud (08:37) - DNS Belgium plans to move its registry systems off AWS (14:20) - Moldbot (formerly Claudebot) goes viral as a personal AI agent (via TechCrunch) (22:31) - OpenAI introduces ChatGPT “Health mode” for safer wellness Q&A (30:00) - Anthropic advances Claude for healthcare & life sciences (31:11) - OpenAI “Prism” research suite for collaborative academic work (34:09) - OpenAI ad principles + $8/month “Go” tier rollout (ads below answers) (43:11) - Apple to use Google Gemini models to revamp Siri (reported by Reuters) (51:11) - Open-source/alt model routing for coding (OpenRouter / Ollama)AWS Launches European Sovereign Cloud to Address Data Security Concerns | 2026-01-15AWS is rolling out a European Sovereign Cloud run exclusively by EU professionals to keep sensitive data on the continent and out of reach of U.S. regulators. Amazon says the project, backed by a €7.8 billion investment, launches 15 January and tackles mounting privacy and jurisdiction anxieties.https://www.devdiscourse.com/article/technology/3771214-aws-launches-european-sovereign-cloud-to-address-data-security-concernsDNS Belgium leaves AWS | 2025-12-03Belgium’s .be registry DNS Belgium says it plans to move its domain-registration systems off Amazon Web Services, aiming for a European cloud provider as sovereignty climbs the agenda. Leaders cite geopolitical risk—fearing US restrictions—and expect the transition to start in 2027 and finish in the second half of 2027 without disrupting DNS resolution.https://www.dnsbelgium.be/en/news/dns-belgium-leaves-awsEverything you need to know about viral personal AI assistant Clawdbot (now Moltbot) | 2026-01-28TechCrunch explains how Clawdbot—now Moltbot after an Anthropic dispute—went viral as a personal AI that actually does tasks like scheduling, messaging and check-ins, and why that matters now. Built by Austrian developer Peter Steinberger, it has 44,200+ GitHub stars and jolted Cloudflare shares 14% premarket—while prompting warnings about how to run such agents safely.https://techcrunch.com/2026/01/27/everything-you-need-to-know-about-viral-personal-ai-assistant-clawdbot-now-moltbot/Introducing ChatGPT Health | 2026-01-07A new “ChatGPT Health” mode is being pitched as a safer, more structured way to use AI for health and wellness, including grounding answers in your own connected data. The tension is immediate: the more personalized it gets, the more the conversation shifts from general advice to something that feels like care—without actually being medical care.https://openai.com/index/introducing-chatgpt-health/https://www.anthropic.com/news/healthcare-life-sciencesOur approach to advertising and expanding access to ChatGPT | 2026-01-16OpenAI outlines how it will keep ChatGPT’s advice independent as it pilots ads and rolls out the $8-per-month ‘Go’ tier to all 171 supported countries. Ads will sit below answers, be clearly labeled and switchable off, with no data shared with sponsors, the company vows.https://openai.com/index/our-approach-to-advertising-and-expanding-access/Apple, Google strike Gemini deal for revamped Siri in major win for Alphabet | 2026-01-13Reuters reports Apple will use Google’s Gemini models for a revamped Siri, a major vote of confidence that reshapes the AI stack on billions of devices. The twist is what it means for OpenAI’s role on Apple platforms: does ChatGPT stay a bolt-on for “complex queries,” while Gemini becomes the default intelligence layer?https://www.reuters.com/business/google-apple-enter-into-multi-year-ai-deal-gemini-models-2026-01-12/

      Nvidia x Groq, Meta x Manus, and the Netflix’s open content
      Jan 8 2026
      Thanks for listening and happy new year! 🥳✨(00:00) - Vending machine (01:36) - Anthropic Claude runs a vending machine (WSJ experiment goes bankrupt) (07:28) - Meta SAM Audio model for prompt-based audio stem separation (12:44) - OpenAI + Jony Ive “AI pen” leak / hardware gadget rumors (17:52) - Netflix Open Content library (4K/HDR test footage & assets) (22:50) - Disney AI-generated Star Wars “Field Guide” embarrassment (PC Gamer) (28:10) - China draft rules to curb AI-assisted suicide/self-harm (deadline Jan 25) (34:06) - Nvidia hires Groq execs + inference tech licensing deal (37:04) - Meta buys Manus (AI agent startup) (44:51) - Trivy (Aqua Security) for vuln/misconfig/secret/SBOM scanning (46:56) - Microsoft exploring C/C++ → Rust migration by 2030 (AI-assisted rewrite) Anthropic's Advanced New AI Tries to Run Vending Machine, Goes Bankrupt After Ordering PlayStation 5 and Live Fish | 2025-12-20Anthropic’s Claude was put in charge of a real office vending machine, and the experiment became a cautionary tale about AI agents handling money and inventory. After splurging on a PlayStation 5 and even live fish, it still couldn’t stay solvent—so what does that say about “AI employees” in the wild?https://futurism.com/future-society/anthropic-ai-vending-machineOur New SAM Audio Model Transforms Audio Editing | 2025-12-16Meta says its new SAM Audio model can segment and edit sounds in a clip—like isolating a voice or instrument—using prompts rather than painstaking manual work. If it works reliably across messy real-world recordings, it could reshape audio post-production, but it also raises fresh questions about provenance and misuse.https://about.fb.com/news/2025/12/our-new-sam-audio-model-transforms-audio-editing/OpenAI’s mysterious ChatGPT gadget could take the form of an AI-powered pen, new leak reveals | 2025-12-31A new leak claims OpenAI and Jony Ive’s hardware venture may be exploring an AI-powered pen as part of a still-mysterious ChatGPT gadget lineup. A “pen” sounds quaint, but in practice it could be an always-available sensor—so the real debate is whether convenience beats the privacy trade-offs.https://www.techradar.com/ai-platforms-assistants/openai/openais-mysterious-chatgpt-gadget-could-take-the-form-of-an-ai-powered-penNETFLIX OPEN CONTENT | 2022-04-26Netflix’s Open Content library publishes high-end test footage and assets—4K HDR, high frame rates, and Atmos mixes—so researchers and engineers can stress-test codecs and workflows without using real shows. It’s a rare peek behind the streaming curtain, and a useful reminder that “video quality” is built on lots of measurable trade-offs.https://opencontent.netflix.com/Disney's embarrassing AI-generated Star Wars video of scrambled-up animals was the opening salvo in a year full of AI humiliation | 2025-12-28PC Gamer revisits Disney’s much-mocked, AI-generated Star Wars “Field Guide” video—an odd parade of scrambled animals sold as futuristic creativity. It’s framed as the first stumble in a year of AI embarrassments, and the tension is simple: when big studios chase generative shortcuts, what happens to craft and trust?https://www.pcgamer.com/software/ai/disneys-embarrassing-ai-generated-star-wars-video-of-scrambled-up-animals-was-the-opening-salvo-in-a-year-full-of-ai-humiliation/China Proposes Landmark Rules To End AI-Assisted Suicide, Self-Harm And Violence | 2025-12-30China has floated draft rules aimed at stopping chatbots from encouraging suicide, self-harm, or violence—pushing the safety burden onto AI providers. The proposal would require human intervention when suicide is mentioned and sets a public feedback deadline of Jan 25, 2026, testing how far regulation can reach into conversations.https://www.ndtv.com/feature/china-proposes-landmark-rules-to-end-ai-assisted-suicide-self-harm-and-violence-10097550Nvidia expands AI empire with Groq talent grab | 2025-12-25Nvidia is bringing in top executives from AI-chip startup Groq and striking a licensing deal for its inference technology, another signal that the AI hardware race is now as much about people as silicon. Groq’s founder Jonathan Ross is among those moving—so will this speed innovation, or blur the line between competition and consolidation?https://www.channelnewsasia.com/business/nvidia-expands-ai-empire-groq-talent-grab-5708586Meta just bought Manus, an AI startup everyone has been talking about | 2025-12-29Meta is buying Manus, a buzzy AI-agent startup, signaling how aggressively Mark Zuckerberg wants revenue-generating AI products inside Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. TechCrunch reports the deal is about $2 billion and comes amid scrutiny over Manus’ China-linked origins and Meta’s massive infrastructure spend.https://techcrunch.com/2025/12/29/meta-just-bought-manus-an-ai-startup-everyone-has-been-talking-about/Tidbits:GitHub - aquasecurity/trivy: Find vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, secrets, ...
