I'M DONE WITH OPENCLAW... I'VE OFFICIALLY MADE THE SWITCH. I RECENTLY DECIDED THAT OPENCLAW WASN'T QUITE WORKING FOR ME, AND I DECIDED TO EXPLORE MY OPTIONS ELSEWHERE. I WAS ABLE AND HERMES IS AN ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL PLATFORM FOR PEOPLE WHO SET UP AGENTS TO DO AUTOMATIONS RIGHT NOW. I'VE GIVEN IT CONTACTS OF DIFFERENT PROVIDERS, AND IT ALSO HAS ACCESS TO OBSIDIAN, SORT OF SECOND BRAIN FOR THE A.I. AGENT, WHERE IT MY CONTACTS FROM CHATS GOING BACK ALMOST A YEAR NOW. I'VE REALLY LIKED THE VERBOSITY OF HERMES, WHERE SOMETIMES IT WOULD FEEL LIKE OPENCLAW WASN'T ACTUALLY DOING I WAS ASKING IT TO DO. HERMES SHOWS IT EXPLICITLY THAT IT IS DOING THINGS THAT I'M LOOKING FOR. I'M GOING TO BE CONTINUING TO TALK A LOT SO IF YOU'RE SOMEBODY WHO'S LOOKING TO LEARN HOW TO DO A.I. AUTOMATIONS, OR YOU'RE JUST INTERESTED IN A.I. IN GENERAL, YOU TO STAY AHEAD.

Transcript

I'm done with Openclaw... I've officially made the switch. I recently decided that Openclaw wasn't quite working for me, and I decided to explore my options elsewhere. I was able to land on Hermes and Hermes is an absolutely phenomenal platform for people who set up agents to do automations right now. I've given it contacts of different providers, and it also has access to Obsidian, sort of second brain for the AI agent, where it my contacts from chats going back almost a year now. I've really liked the verbosity of Hermes, where sometimes it would feel like Openclaw wasn't actually doing what I was asking it to do. Hermes shows it explicitly that it is doing things that I'm looking for. I'm going to be continuing to talk a lot about Hermes, so if you're somebody who's looking to learn how to do AI automations, or you're just interested in AI in general, you can follow me to stay ahead.
