AI Coworkers Are Here

In the span of days, the “AI news cycle” moved again: OpenClaw has been acquired. Craig Lauer (longtime Qualcomm builder turned angel investor), Ross Young (CEO of Clinically AI, building tools for behavioral health), and Greg Moser (CEO of ShipCalm) break down what they’re seeing… then Greg takes it from theory to practice with a real demo of how he’s deployed autonomous agents inside his company via Slack. Key Topics: * Why OpenClaw’s biggest breakthrough wasn’t just autonomy - it was memory + agency * The difference between 1:1 AI chat and social, collaborative AI inside teams * Why “execution” may no longer be the moat - mental models might be * How to think about AI security when giving agents real power * What the “adoption layer” means - and why it may be the next big opportunity * How companies can move from AI-curious to AI-native Links & resources * ShipCalm * Clinically AI * Cursor Connect on LinkedIn * Craig Lauer * Ross Young * Greg Moser * Neal Bloom This is a public episode.
