That was back when uh we had GPT-4.1 and it's the 1 million context window. And I I pulled in all the data and then I just asked him questions, like what makes this friendship meaningful? And I got some some really profound results. Like I sent it to my friends and they were got like teary eyes. >> So, there's something there. >> Yeah, but then I I thought all the labs will will will work on that. So, I I moved on to other things and I was still very much in my early days of experimenting and playing. You know, you have to that's how you learn. You just like you do stuff and you play. And time flew by and it was November. I wanted to make sure that the thing I started is actually happening. I was annoyed that it didn't exist, so I just prompted it into existence. >> So, that's on the LLM programming side, refactoring, but uh uh back to the actual story of the of the prototype. So, how did Vibe Tunnel connect to the first prototype where you're like agents can actually work? >> Well, that was still very limited. You know, like I had this one experiment with WhatsApp, then I had this experiment and both felt like not the right answer. And then my search file was literally just hooking up WhatsApp to cloud code. One shot, the CLI. Message comes in. I call the CLI with minus P. It does its magic. I get the string back and I send it back to WhatsApp and I I built this in 1 hour. And I felt [clears throat] already felt really cool. It's like, oh, I could I can like talk to my computer, right? This Um you know the moment where it it blew my mind was when when I used it a lot and then at some point I just sent it a message. And and then the typing indicator appeared and and I'm like, [clears throat] wait, I didn't build that. It's only It only has image support. So, what is it even doing? And then it would just reply. >> What was the thing you sent it? >> Oh, just a random questions like, hey, what about this and this restaurant, you know? Um cuz we were just running around and and checking out the city. So, that's why I I didn't didn't even think when I used it because sometimes when you're in a hurry, typing is annoying. >> So, you Oh, you did an audio message. >> Yeah. And it was just it just worked and I'm like >> And it's not supposed to work because it you know, you didn't give it that >> No, literally capability. I literally wrote, how the did you do that? And it was like, yeah, the mad lad did the following. He sent me a message, but it only only was a file and no file ending. So, it I checked out the header of the file and it found that it was like Opus. So, I used FFmpeg to convert it and then I wanted to use Whisper, but you didn't have it installed. But then I found the OpenAI key and just used curl to send the file to to OpenAI to translate and here I am. Uh I just looked at the message and like oh, wow. >> You didn't teach it any of those things and the agent just figured it out that it has to do all those conversions, the translation, it figured out the API, it figured out which program to use, all those kinds of things and you were just absent-mindedly just sent an audio message. >> It makes so clever even because you would have gone the Whisper local path, you would have had to download a model, that would have been too slow. So, like there's so much world knowledge in there, so much creative problem-solving. A lot of it I think mapped from if you get really good at coding, that means you have to be really good at general-purpose program solving. So, that's a skill, right? And that just maps into other domains. So, it had the problem of like what is this file? There's no file ending, let's figure it out. Um and that's where it kind of clicked for me. It was like I was like very impressed. >> Uh there's so many possible directions being factorial that we can go here, but one uh big picture one is why do you think your work, OpenClaw, won in this world, if you look at 2025, so many startups, so many companies who are doing kind of agentic type stuff or claiming to and here OpenClaw comes in and destroys everybody. Like, why did you win? >> Because they all take themselves too serious. >> [laughter] >> Yeah. Like, it's hard to compete against someone who's just there to have fun. >> Yeah. >> I wanted it to be fun, I wanted it to be weird and if you see like all the all the lobster stuff online, um I think I I managed weird.

I’ll explain why in a moment. Thank you very much in any case for taking the time for us. >> Glad to be here. >> Um, why one of the best-known Austrian figures internationally at the moment? That has to do with the situation in February 2026. Um, you developed Open Clow in 2025, an AI agent, and it absolutely skyrocketed ; it was a huge success and everyone wanted it. Mark Zuckerberg from Meta wanted it. Sam Altman from Open AI, the entire Silicon Valley. Um, and you then decided on Open AI in February, and that was an international headline. What was interesting was your reasoning for why you chose Open AI, and you said it wasn’t the highest offer that was decisive. One naturally wonders, firstly, why didn't you take the highest offer, and secondly, what was the deciding factor? Um, I don't know, I think one should optimize work so that it is fun and that that one that one is aligned with what the company does and so the the in the final selection were Meta and Open um wasn't an easy decision. >> I mean, I think both companies are super cool. >> Mhm. I >> I actually have to say, it was a gut decision. The project and the people at Open AI just appealed to me more. >> Okay. Does it perhaps also have to do with that? It's a spontaneous question that comes to mind, because Open AI actually started as a societal project without economic interests. And there is , so to speak, something meaningful behind it. Maybe Meta too, I don't want to deny that, but with Open AI that was the focus, there was also a foundation originally. So is it more about, um, meaningful goals rather than purely economic interests? Well, a reason was certainly the fact that Open AI is truly a frontier lab. Open AI has the best or the second-best model, depending on the week, more or less. >> And back then, with Meta, it was very unclear whether they had invested all that money, um would work into good models. Yes. Mhm. >> That was about a month ago, Meta launched Muse Wonder. >> Mhm. Um, and respect. I mean, they have really caught up. They're still not quite at the frontier , but, um, close enough. >> Mhm. Um, now the question is, of course, um, why are you, uh, the most well-known and sought-after, uh, uh, Austrian in the international tech world? Why isn't it me? Why isn't it someone else? It has to do with what is obviously in your head, and that's why you're called one of the most sought-after minds. Um, what's inside your head that isn't in others 'has, of course, to do with Open Cloud. How did you come up with Open Cloud? Uh, what is special about it? I think the I started working with these models last year and really dove deep into it. Yeah, I used basically all the time I had, >> uh, to tinker and understand where things are heading. So, every one of my friends who went through the same thing, they all had this effect , uh, where they couldn't sleep for a while. So, kind of from especially as a software developer, when I, when I do projects now, um, everything was very difficult and and just took a very long time. Yeah. Mhm. >> And suddenly I can actually do everything I want to do. I mean, it's still still a challenge. Yes, but the speed at which I can now create projects is not comparable to before. And last year it didn't go that incredibly well, right? But one >> with the existing agents, right? You could see this this spark that was there, um, kind of, where is it going, how will it all the models are getting better, what does that mean now? Um, uh, maybe a different question. I took the liberty of asking the AI what exactly that jump was from normal agents to the agent you developed, Open Cloud. And, uh, as far as I understand it— please correct me if I'm wrong. Until your agent, it was kind of like this: you entered something into the internet or into an agent. So it was basically a chatbot and it gave an answer. So the thing researched for you, right? Um, it was like an advisor. You asked something and something came back, and, uh, with your agent, there was this quantum leap toward it being like an assistant, like a secretary or an assistant. It can then also write emails, edit files, research on the internet, book travel, organize appointments—basically moving from an advisor you ask something and get a response, to an organizer, an assistant. Is that the right way to describe it? >> Yes. Yes, roughly. There, I believe one of the main reasons why the whole thing exploded back then. >> Mhm. >> Was the technology, the m...

  There is a moment in the history of technology when a new invention stops looking like a product and starts looking like a new relationship. The personal computer had that moment. The web had that moment. The smartphone had that moment. Peter Steinberger's open claw points to another one. Not because open claw was the first AI agent and not because it's suddenly created intelligence from nothing. Its importance was more practical and in some ways more revealing. It showed what happens when a powerful language model is connected to a person's actual digital life, their files, messages, tools, programs, websites, and ongoing projects. The computer stops waiting for instructions inside separate applications. It becomes a collaborator that can remember a context, use tools, try things, recover from mistakes, and continue working. That is the Steinberger effect. It is the movement from asking a chatbot for an answer to giving an agent a place in your life. Steinberger built open claw as a personal project. It could be reached through ordinary messaging systems, but behind the messages it could operate a computer. It could inspect files, run commands, use APIs, work with software, and build up a working relationship with its user. The ingredients were not entirely new. Language models already existed. Command line tools already existed. Open source software already existed. Messaging platforms already existed. The breakthrough was putting those ingredients together in a form that people could feel. A chatbot gives you a response. An agent gives you a relationship with an ongoing process. That difference sounds small until you experience it. With a conventional application, you open the right program, find the right menu, remember the right procedure, and perform the task yourself. With an agent, you express an intention. The system searches for the tools, discovers how they work, tries a path, encounters an error, reads the error, and tries again. The interface moves upward from buttons and menus toward purpose. This is why people began saying that apps might disappear. The deeper point is not that software disappears. It is that the software becomes something the agent can operate on your behalf. The user may no longer need to know which application performs the task. They need to know what they want done, what authority to grant, and how to check the result. But, the most interesting part of the open clause story is not only the code. It is the people who gathered around it. Hundreds of thousands of technically curious people began experimenting, modifying, repairing, extending, and explaining the system. Many discovered Linux. Many discovered shells, permissions, networking, APIs, local files, servers, and the strange beauty of tools that do not hide everything from you. Some of them had the same realization. Why did I not discover this earlier? For years, computing had become increasingly polished and increasingly invisible. Most people used computers through layers of corporate design that made them convenient, but also made them feel sealed shut. Open Clorio opened the machine. It made the computer feel like a workshop again. People stayed up late trying to make things work. They shared fixes. They compared configurations. They discovered that the system was not a magic article. It was a powerful, imperfect, collaborated that needed structure, permissions, supervision, and sometimes a very patient human being. That is not merely software adoption. It is a mass apprenticeship. People were not just consuming a new product. They were learning how their own machines worked by trying to build something with them. This is one reason Steinberger's legacy may be larger than Open He helped make advanced computing feel like a playground again. The historical pattern is familiar. Linux was never only an operating system. It was a school, a culture, and an invitation to understand the machinery beneath the interface. Open source projects often create this kind of accidental education. A person arrives wanting to solve one practical problem. They leave understanding something about operating systems, programming, collaboration, and their own capacity to learn. Open Cola added an unusual ingredient. The system itself could help teach the user. The agent could explain a command, inspect a configuration, read an error message, search documentation, and suggest a next experiment. It made the apprenticeship conversational. That changes who can enter the workshop. You no longer need to understand everything before you begin. You can begin with a question and learn by doing. But this new power creates a new responsibility. An agent that can read files, send messages, browse the web, run commands, and alter a computer is not simply a more helpful chatbot. It is a system with permissions. That means the central questions are no longer only how intelligent is the model? How impressive is the demo? How many tasks can it complet...
