Absolutely. Very simply, up until now, we had AI that could talk. We now have AI that can act. In practice, we've had various forms of AI agents for many years, but the technology wasn't there to make them useful. In particular, previous agents were very limited because the technology wasn't there yet, allowing them to troubleshoot, interact and use computer tools on the fly.
Since December, there has been a jump in the base model capability. A whole new infrastructure, like OpenClaw, was developed, which helps give control of a computer to an AI assist agent.
We're now in a world where you're not just talking to a chatbot and getting an answer, but you're telling an AI assist agent to go and do this in the real world for you.
