"The viral AI personal assistant, formerly known as Clawdbot and Moltbot, has dominated the feeds of AI boosters over the past few weeks for its ability to perform everyday tasks like sending emails, managing calendars, booking appointments, and complaining about their meatbag masters on the purportedly all-agent forum known as MoltBook. More level-headed voices have already flagged a wave of security vulnerabilities."
"In case it needs to be said, no one should be running this thing on their personal devices lest the agent accidentally leak your most personal and sensitive secrets to the web. That's not just our opinion, it's one shared by the multitude of security experts El Reg has talked to about OpenClaw over the past few weeks, with some describing it as "an infostealer malware disguised as an AI personal assistant.""
Raspberry Pi's share price jumped about 90 percent over a couple of days and remained more than 30 percent up on the week. The surge followed speculation that the viral AI personal assistant OpenClaw could drive demand for low-cost compute similarly to past Mac Mini interest. OpenClaw can perform everyday tasks like emailing, calendar management, and booking, but numerous security experts warned it poses data-leak and malware risks. Some users proposed running agents on low-power devices such as Raspberry Pi, yet Raspberry Pi prices have risen, with a top-specced Pi 5 16GB now over $200.
