- AI agent — An AI system that doesn't just answer once but works toward a goal in a loop — taking actions, reading the results, and deciding what to do next.
It reframes browser reliability as work any team can do now rather than a wait on the next model, and names the specific architecture choices that separate production systems from demos.
“When OpenClaw shipped, people started buying Mac minis to run it from home, SSHing in and clearing captchas off a residential IP.”
“His argument is that browser agents are no longer held back by the models. The capability is already there and the engineering around it is missing, which makes the overhang something any team can close rather than wait on a lab for.”
“The most reliable browser agents in production are multimodal and write code alongside clicking, often intercepting network requests and replaying them rather than driving pixels.”
“The payoff is not in San Francisco. It is the logistics company in Singapore, the bank in South Africa, and the lumber factory in Mexico, all running on PHP forms with people clicking buttons every day.”
