OpenClaw for normies is here
from ACCESS · host Alex Heath
Alex and Ellis talk about OpenAI’s acquisition of TBPN, the tension between media and corporate ownership, and why so many people in AI seem to be working themselves into the ground. Then they’re joined by Marvin von Hagen, CEO of Poke, an AI assistant that lives in your texts and connects to everything from your email to your calendar. It's basically OpenClaw for normies. They discuss why Marvin believed in AI agents early, why he thinks texting is the best interface for AI, how Poke handles automation and security, why he sued Meta, and why a billionaire ended up paying $136,000 a month for Poke.Follow ACCESS on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/accesspodcast/Follow Alex:https://sources.news/https://x.com/alexeheath/Follow Ellis:https://meaning.company/https://x.com/hamburger ACCESS is produced in partnership with the Vox Media Podcast Network.Learn more about your ad choices.
