I finally found a great use for OpenClaw (lemmygrad.ml)

I've had openclaw running on an old macbook that was otherwise just laying around, using MiniMax M2.5 and GLM-5 for the past couple weeks. Beyond it breaking its own config and me asking it to help add features and fix bugs in some open source applications I use, I didn't really have a great use for it. But today I told it the US started a new war, it went out and searched multiple sources to confirm, and then gave me a summary of what news sites around the world are saying.

I asked it to specifically look for West Asia and Middle East sources, translate, and summarize them and provide me with updates on anything big.

It's doing that over Telegram now, though it is having a hard time finding any accessible Iranian sites.

That's pretty freakin awesome. It's also doing automatic Text To Speech, so I can just listen to the updates as they come in too.

apis.. local models are just too crappy to do anything reliably

Any recommendations? I’m using local models and npu/tpu/whatever devices at the moment.

i use GLM-5 and MiniMax-M2.5 through their coding plans which are pretty cheap and you can do them by the month

i tried with local models but they just suck too badly. they're too limited to get things right, much less be consistent
