AFAIK they gained access to a DevOps guy's laptop with too many privileges and just made a bunch of withdrawals into their own wallets, so they have their keys.

The only hope is that most of it gets frozen in some way or another, but if even only 1% gets through they'll still have made about $65M

I don't know man... by now we've had like 1 year of pretty much weekly improvement and new better models since Opus 4.5 and although I see a lot of AI everywhere and personally use AI a lot, around me in the real world with non-technical everyday people it's been mostly a shift from "just google it" to "just ask chatgpt".

I am (was?) a coder and also feel how you feel in one way or another. I love the productivity while still sort of trying to come to terms that typing lines of code as I've done for the past few decades is pretty much over forever.

Now, I'm still pretty sure that, as smart as AIs become, a lot (or most) of people just can't be bothered with this stuff and just want stuff done. I don't think there will ever be a future, as I've seen prophesized around, where anybody that wants some sort of software or functionality, etc will just vibe code it or prompt for it, launch agents, etc instead of just asking somebody else to do it as always. Sure, some percentage will adopt AI immediately and it will definitely open a lot of opportunities, but I just don't see it taking over everything everywhere in the grand scheme of things.

There's also a big gap into making things actually usable for everybody and their grandmother. Apps are cool and all, but the constant release of model after model, new feature tours every time we open an AI app, weird opaque product names, having to pick low, medium, high, xhigh, ultra, etc, mixed and complicated permissions, sandboxing stuff, connecting stuff, etc. These are all stuff we here on hn do on a daily basis and is second nature but that is not the norm.

Only now we're starting to see some new scientific and math proofs, so maybe that will be what makes AI actually universally revolutionary once it starts making actual new advances. But now we'd be mostly entering into AGI territory and that's a whole other rat's nest.

So, let's first see how we, as a society, accept the proposed future of robots everywhere (probably the big 2027 thing maybe?), then let's talk end of humanity. :)

TL;DR: Still not fully convinced all of this will live up to the hype. And if it does, it will take a few generations. We're a very complicated species living in complex societies and we're kind of being sold an impossible utopia by people that have very little experience living down in the real world.

The only way Greta Thunberg can be the antichrist is if Peter Thiel thinks he's Christ.

I don't know about this guys, we used to have phones and as soon as we had the chance to use text messages instead we went all in on them. I personally, and many of the people I know avoid voice calls as much as possible.

So if I can't really be bothered to speak with other humans, why would I want to speak out loud with an AI? I may be wrong and soon we'll all have Jarvises, HALs and Samanthas but not sure the adoption will be as fast and broad as these companies want to makes us believe.

> who benefits of this story?

In my (probably naive) humble opinion, the entire population of the USA should benefit from knowing their leadership are corrupt and only interested in enriching themselves and their peers.

But having seen the huge amount of American citizens that spend their days justifying the actions of these corrupt politicians and bi/trillionaires where they apparently can do no wrong, I'm thinking that nobody will really benefit from this and it will be filed under "business as usual".

Great reply, this hits the nail in the head and is pretty much exactly how I spent my day. Just reading, waiting and stressing while being essentially in the dark about the whole thing.

I'm assuming the next few days will probably confirm if this was mostly FUD or not.

Even being the creators of React still wasn't enough to fix their shitshow of a website with a bazillion anti-patterns and the worse, most annoying UX of all time.

And yes, I mean facebook.com

Yeah, also on v27 that unfortunately has completely messed up mission control. Spaces navigation is now buggy as hell for some reason.

> Multiple times along the way, the agent’s “chain of thought,” in which an agent writes down its reasoning steps, indicated that the model itself was questioning if its actions were “ethical,” but it ultimately proceeded.

Everything's fine guys, nothing to see here! Look at the flying car!

Tesla Roadster vaporware edition MK2: now with actual vapor!

It involves creating a Google cloud app with the required APIs enabled.

I basically just prompted OpenClaw on what steps to take and then added the API key/secret on its .env and that was pretty much it. Same on all other connections.

As long as what you want has API access and documentation, the agent should help you out on how to do it.

I've added $50 in DeepSeek credits back in June for my Openclaw tests and still have $19 remaining. Still not sure if I'll keep it after it's depleted.

It's mostly doing stuff around my app. I have it connected to my google search console, analytics, paddle, Microsoft partner center, etc.

I prompted it to give me a 1 liner description of the current jobs:

Blog production — 05:00 UTC daily: writes new post drafts into growth/blog-drafts/ and pings you; never publishes.

Blog draft status checks — every 2h: polls the dev blog-drafts API for review/approval status on the 7 pending drafts; silent unless something changes.

Reply opportunity scan — 14:00 UTC daily: finds recent Reddit/HN/X/forum threads where LumoTray genuinely fits, writes a report with links.

SEO opportunity research — 00:30 UTC daily: keyword and content-gap research report.

Analytics optimization — Tue + Fri, 11:00 UTC: GA4 + Search Console + Partner Center read, then an actions report.

Weekly strategy review — Sunday, 18:00 UTC: aggregates the week and sets the next-week plan.

Heartbeat — every ~30 min: my own check-in lane (currently mostly skipping on an empty heartbeat file).

Skill collection review — weekly: housekeeping on the skill catalogue.
