And you've got to remember that research companies don't start with the full product.
Doing the research is hard enough.
They start with the technologies.
And those technologies are not that easy to use.
And ultimately, they or business partners figure out how to productize them.
And that harness is the productization.
And it's the harness that makes these AI systems so incredibly useful.
But you could look at...
energetic harness.
And I've seen this on X when people have looked at OpenClaw or the zillion of clones like PicoClaw and ZeroClaw that are out there.
And they say, well, there's just not much in there.
It's just a way of scheduling your AI system to run different prompts at different times and to look at the right files on your file system.
It's a scheduler.
It's a set of consistent rules.
I mean, that is a lot of what something like OpenClaw does.
But equally, you could look at a car and say, well...
So what?
It's kind of an increasingly cheap metal frame and there are some cheap seats in it and there's a dodgy hi-fi sitting there.
That's not very clever, but it's the harness that makes us use it.
And it's a harness that makes us use them more and more and more.
