OpenClaw Has a Critical Security Problem

Clawdbot (now Moltbot / OpenClaw) is going viral- with people claiming it runs their business 24/7 and is basically AGI. So I tested it properly... and I found some things you should know about. Note: Opus4.5 is pretty expensive to use with this setup. I recommend using another, non-reasoning model. I mention that this is a tool that shows us what AGI would be like. I am not saying that the framework doesn't have potential, I am just saying that it doesn't deserve the hype it's getting online. Do you know what deserves all the hype? LangChain, LangSmith and Pydantic AI when they launched lol Also, if you’re thinking buying a Mac Mini for this- please consider getting a Raspberry Pi ;) 🔹 Get free templates and guides by joining a free community of over 2100+ business owners and entrepreneurs on the same mission as you (FREE AI Automation Course Included):: https://www.skool.com/neural-architects-2547 🚀 No more tutorials.
