As you keep modifying or adding capabilities, it’s the script that gets modified. Atleast that’s how OpenClaw works, I’m not sure how Moltis implements self-modifying part.
If you run it with a cheaper model or just once in a while, it will write sometjing unexpected into its config json, restart and crash. Happens every few days. I learned to back up the config the hard way
It can modify everything, because while it's a single binary and that makes it easy for installation, there are things stored outside that binary. The memories, the skills, the config etc. But you can do everything from the UI and you don't need to bother, it will be all automatic.
The most effective argument I have for getting other developers to comment their code is "The agent will read it and it will give better suggestions".
Truly perverse, but it works.
I agree with you... but the reality is that there's a wide contingent of people that are not capable of understanding "people don't know the same things as me". So they need some other reason.
It's made my project documentation so much better. If I write out really good acceptance criteria, 9 times out of 10 I can point Claude at the ticket and get a workable (if unpolished) solution with little to no supervision.
1) an AI agent is less likely to notice than even a junior is when the docs are out of date from the code
2) AI boosters are always talking about using language models to understand code, but apparently they need the code explained inline? are we AGI yet?
3) I frequently hear how great AI is at writing comments! But it needs comments to better understand the code? So I guess to enable agentic coding you also have to review all the agents' comments in addition to the code in order to prevent drift
Well... Yah. For the record I'm saying this to trick humans into making better comments for humans. It is very difficult to convince people to do this otherwise, in my experience.
buuut...
I will also mention that these agent files are typically generated by agents. And they're pretty good at it. I've previously used agents to dissect unfamiliar code bases in unfamiliar languages and it has worked spectacularly well. Far far FAR better than I could have done on my own.
I have also been shocked at how dumb they can be. They are uselessly stupid at their worst, but brilliant at their best.
I don’t think they serve the same purpose. Most of the instructions I have for an agent won’t apply to a human. It’s mostly around the the requirements to bootstrap the project vs what I’d ask for a human to accept their pull request.
Thanks! Do you have experience using it? I'm quite nervous on using node CLT because the dependencies will always end up destroying the project and seeing it hasn't been updated in 5 years does not instill confidence.
The golang project looked better because at least the golang project provides a binary.
The amount of information the SVG must store to represent the animation actually crashed the application creating it. There’s too much going on in TTE animations.
One thing I miss the most when writing Markdown is this formula experience you get in Excel. Jot something down, get the result. Then link it to another block.
There are tools like Jupyter notebooks that have all the functionalities, but their file format isn't very readable or diffable using standard terminal tools.
My assumption was that a tool like this will make it easier to keep the README.md in sync while the project evolves. Think of a `--help` section. That assumption holds true to me.
I don't know. It's a question relevant to all generative AI applications in entertainment - whether books, art, music, film or videogames. To the extent the value of these works is mostly in being social objects (i.e. shared experience to talk about with other people), being able to generate clones and personalized variants freely via GenAI destroys that value.
Since Chrome's engine is used by Edge, Opera, Brave, etc.. Probably the best move is to become a non-profit and have all those organizations chip in.
The main reason even Microsoft gave up and rebased their browser on top of Chrome is because of the breakneck speed at which Google introduces new standards and features to the ecosystem. Having them be forced to slow down might be a good thing for browser diversity and the future of the Internet.
