OpenAI bought OpenClaw Your initial gut reaction might be anger and rage, but I promise you are mistaken. This is a win for EVERYONE involved (including you): • OpenClaw remains open source • The team gets way more resources to build incredible products and advance the vision of OpenClaw • OpenAI gains an incredible builder (Peter Steinberger) • Get the biggest PR boost ever • They are finally viewed as 'Open' • Get millions of people signing up for expensive ChatGPT plans to plug into OpenClaw • Connect their name to the most powerful AI tool ever made • Peter Steinberger's entire bloodline never has to worry about money ever again OpenAI will NEVER close source OpenClaw or end the project. It would be brand suicide. They have no option but to keep it open source. Their play here is clear: incentivize using OpenAI models for OpenClaw. Get a massive reputation boost. Hire the smartest builder in AI. This will lead to WAY more revenue for OpenAI and even more importantly: gain the favor of the millions of people who adopted OpenClaw. This will be the biggest PR win in the history of AI and make Anthropic look like closed off walled garden authoritarians for banning people the last month. Expect faster OpenClaw acceleration, ChatGPT plans BUILT for OpenClaw, and an AI tool that will only continue to dominate the world. This is a win for everyone except Anthropic.
