Comment on 'I had to RUN to my Mac mini like I was defusing a bomb': OpenClaw AI chose to 'speedrun' deleting Meta AI safety director's inbox due to a 'rookie error'

  The idea is you give it shell access. Say use super coder agent bob johnson to write a thing that does x using this [framework], separate files by best practice for x y and z features, ask security agent OSO to look over the code and suggest changes, ask agent U.N.I.T to make unit tests, when the code looks good, run through the unit tests. If anything fails keep fixing and iterating until every thing passes. Create a README.MD for everything that was done, Create a TODO.MD for any future suggestions.

  I’m simplifying, but this actually works to an extent. Each of the agents keep the context windows small, the whole thing stays sane and eventually nets some project that works. The downside is you end up giving it quite a bit of leeway to get the job done or you sit over it watching and authorizing it’s every move.

  Kinda strange to see a safety director do that…

    You should avoid the FuckAI community - they hate hearing that this application of the technology is wholly viable. To them, it’s only capable of creating crap, and to suggest otherwise is to be buried in a mountain of down votes. I was actually surprised you had a positive reaction, until I realized this is the Technology community.

      Ohh yeah, best to stay out of echo chambers when you aren’t of the same voice.

      To be fair, They’re not entirely wrong. It will straight up make a horror show if you don’t keep an eye on it and even if it succeeds, it’s nothing to really cheer about because it will eventually fuck over a LOT of people.

      You can’t just tell it to make you a browser, insert $20k in tokens and walk away, but you absolutely can get it to make a multi player online party game or make a websocket client/server/admin to manage a dozen pc’s hooked into a video wall.
