Yes, you’re right. It’s the children who are wrong.
replyWhy is it so difficult to imagine that something that looks popular and fun is popular and fun?
Also, really who is paying for stars on open claw? Who benefits here?
Or you're just missing the generally wide appeal of the project.
replyThere just aren't enough hobbyists in the world running local AI models, never mind technically savvy enough to hack something like OpenClaw and be really excited about it.
replyFor a comparison, the local image gen interfaces ComfyUI and A1111 WebUI have a huge amount of stars (~100k and 160k respectively, accrued since 2022 or so), but they allow you to create porn customized to whatever kinks you have, not just automate things for the sake of automation. One of those is a rather bigger value prop than the other, dopamine-wise.
Why would they be running local AI models? The creator of OpenClaw explicitly recommends against running OpenClaw using local LLM models at this time, because they're not as powerful as frontier models as well as much more gullible to prompt injection and the like.
replyThere's no need to run local models with OpenClaw. I use Anthropic's oAuth Max20 Plan subscription via their SDK...
replyI bet if people could star repos anonymously those porn repos would have more stars.
