What exactly does this mean? You have contracts with these companies? People who work for them contributed sometimes in the past to openclaw repository?

If I am not mistaken steipete works for OpenAI now as part of OpenClaw being acquired by them back in February.

NVIDIA is contributing to the security of OpenClaw via NemoClaw.[0]

Not sure about ByteDance and Tencent.

They both sponsor the OpenClaw Foundation and provide engineers to improve OpenClaw.

Jensen mentioned on a podcast (sorry I don’t have a link on me, it was either the all in podcast or Lex Friedman) that they are helping support and harden on the security side, and that he considers it like the “iPhone moment”

Most of these larger players are interested in supporting anything that helps grow the ecosystem so broadly.

Nvidia is willing to do anything to keep the hype going - there's a desperation to find a 'killer app'.
