| Wow, listening to the article [a], with the flat, tinny AI voice - it's hard to shake the feeling that this is satire. And in the YouTube video, I think I glimpse the AI delegating and assigning work to the user (hey, you should review this file/presentation) - via Teams or some other chat interface that probably grabs your attention with an obnoxious ping! Ironically, the vision they seem to be peddling looks quite close to what NocoBase[n] is selling. Key difference being that NocoBase at least try to increase human agency. They both suffer a bit from 4gl flaws; how do you version your code, how do you move it to another system, eg when changing employer. Like, how do bring your customized Chad - senior assistant - with you to Google workspace or fastmail? For NocoBase AFAIK they have modules, but no real versioning - so I don't see how it is a good fit for developers. I just recently came across it as I was looking for a ticketing system - and no, I don't want to build my own in a 4gl system if I can help it. But holy shit would I be more inclined to let our org users play with NocoBase rather than set things on fire with chaos agents running on top of OpenClaw! PS: We looked at libreDesk (too simple, missing things like merging issues) - looks like we'll go for FreeScout. I'm kind of sad that Trac/Apache bloodhound died (and I think died, not just became feature complete) - they worked pretty well for email first support tickets.
