Lobster Buffet and Autonomous AI Take Center Stage at ClawCon NYC

At ClawCon NYC, OpenClaw—a free software project enabling users to deploy AI agents that can perform tasks with minimal human input—captured the crowd with lobster tails and demos showing agents summarizing podcasts, negotiating car prices, and ordering groceries. The event showcased how personal autonomous AI systems could reshape daily workflows, while experts warned of security and privacy risks as these tools gain access to email, banking, and other sensitive data; organizers plan future stops in Austin, Tokyo, and London.
