Today I ran a short, hands-on session for Keep Going on OpenClaw 101, a plain look at what people mean when they say “AI agents” and how they actually work in practice.
An agent is just a chatbot with access. It can reach into your files, your email, your servers, and your tools.
In this video I show a live setup. We ran OpenClaw on a Raspberry Pi, connected it to Telegram, and used it to make real changes. It edited a website header, sent emails, created a simple site, and monitored inputs, all from short prompts.
I also spent time on the risks. Giving a system this level of access is not trivial. It can write code, trigger actions, and touch production systems. It is useful, but it demands caution.
The goal was simple: I wanted to strip away the hype and show what this looks like up close and how it works. As a fan of exploring new tech, I hope you enjoy this quick video and I’ll probably do another one in a few weeks.
