And I'll give you a specific example.

So when you use a website or a mobile app, you obviously expect it to be perfectly synchronous.

Like you press a button, there's an immediate response.

That's your user expectation from 20 years of using apps.

When you actually text someone, you don't expect me to reply right away.

You're like, oh, Anish might reply in five minutes, or it might take him two hours, or whatever.

The magic of OpenClaw, I think, is because it's in a mobile messaging channel, your sort of subtle expectation is it won't reply right away.

So it has to go off and do something more ambitious.

It can do it without feeling like this delayed experience.

The other way that shows up, if you look at the model switching settings in ChatGPT, for example, it's trying to find this balance between instant and deep thinking.

which is a little bit of a user expectation contour that they're trying to meet versus just being like, hey, I'm going to go do some stuff and I'll make the trade-offs and I'll let you know when I'm ready.

Right, right.

And OpenCloud does that really well.

So I don't know that there's any one thing.

It's just the whole way it's put together I think is very elegant.

Productivity porn.

Well, first of all, I think that we need to, this whole mindset about defensibility and modes and it all feels so heavy.

Like there's this beautiful creative direction in what you described and how you don't have to thumb through manuals.

And now the cost of doing something that fails is zero, right?

So you get to try every idea and there's so much information in exploration.
