✰ Knowledge Skill

LLMs are amazing at summarizing content. Agents are amazing at doing workflows based on a simple input. I have found a huge amount of value by using OpenClaw as a "second brain."

✰ OpenClaw Agent Model Selection

Let OpenClaw plugins dynamically override which AI model handles a request, enabling cost-optimized routing based on prompt complexity or session context, amongst other things!

Teacher AI Use is Already Out of Control and It's Not Ok ↳

I teach HS Science in the south. I can only speak for my district, buta few teacher work days in the wave of enthusiasm I'm seeing for AI tools is overwhelming. We're getting district approved ads for AI tools by email, Admin and ICs are pushing it on us, and at least half of the teaching staff seems all in at this point. I was just in a meeting with my team and one of the older teachers brought out a powerpoint for our first lesson and almost everyone agreed to use it after a quick scan- but it was missing important tested material, repetitive, and just totally airy and meaningless. Just slide after slide of the same handful of sentences rephrased with random loosely related stock photos. When I asked him if it was AI generated, he said 'of course', like it was a strange question. Then, I told the team I might go in a different direction because I wanted to avoid using AI in the classroom and the team lead made a face and told me that all of the lessons she brings for our meetings have been AI generated for the last year.

Constantly amazed at how often Product Managers jump on the AI bandwagon without full context. Eg: someone excitedly discussing the Agentic Shopify MCP when just using a simple Restful API is more than sufficient.

I almost pasted this thought into ChatGPT because it was a bit wordy but I caught myself at the last minute...
