OpenClaw Creator Peter Steinberger Joins OpenAI to Lead Personal Agents

OpenClaw creator Peter Steinberger has joined OpenAI to lead next-generation autonomous agents. The move signals a shift from passive chatbots to task-executing AI, scaling his viral open-source vision globally.

Details:

• Peter Steinberger will lead a division at OpenAI focused on personal agents, aiming to build a simple, fully autonomous assistant that manages users’ digital lives — not just conversations

• His viral OpenClaw project won’t be folded into OpenAI. Instead, it will move to a fresh foundation to stay fully open-source, with OpenAI funding its independent growth

• After OpenClaw gained 200,000 GitHub stars for automating tasks across apps like WhatsApp and Telegram, Steinberger declined startup offers, choosing OpenAI’s backing to pursue broader impact

This hire signals OpenAI’s aggressive move into agentic AI, combining Steinberger’s local-first agent experience with OpenAI’s model research to reshape human–software interaction.

You Can't Automate Good Judgement

AI promises speed and efficiency, but it’s leaving many leaders feeling more overwhelmed than ever.

The real problem isn’t technology.

It’s the pressure to do more with less — without losing what makes your leadership effective.

BELAY created the free resource 5 Traits AI Can’t Replace & Why They Matter More Than Ever to help leaders pinpoint where AI can help and where human judgment is still essential.

At BELAY, we help leaders accomplish more by matching them with top-tier, U.S.-based Executive Assistants who bring the discernment, foresight, and relational intelligence that AI can’t replicate.

That way, you can focus on vision. Not systems.

AI in Entertainment

ByteDance Restricts Seedance Following Legal Threats From Disney And Paramount

ByteDance is rushing to revise “Seedance 2.0” after The Walt Disney Company and Paramount Global issued cease-and-desist letters over copyrighted characters, forcing limits on the app’s AI generation.

Details:

• Disney said Seedance used stolen data, replicating Star Wars and Marvel characters. Paramount Skydance raised similar claims over Star Trek, and South Park, while SAG-AFTRA flagged non-consensual use of actor likenesses

• The backlash grew after an AI video of Tom Cruise fighting Brad Pitt went viral, showing the app could bypass copyright and sparking fears for human-led entertainment

• ByteDance said it “respects intellectual property rights” and is adding safeguards. The app stays online but blocks Hollywood IP and celebrity likenesses, removing the features that made it a hit

This swift concession marks a key win for major studios, showing that even as generative AI crosses borders, Hollywood’s legal power can still force a reset.

AI Tutorial

How to Get Better AI Outputs with Multiple Choice Prompts

Most weak AI results come from messy context. Long explanations and half‑formed ideas confuse the system. This tutorial shows a simple fix: use multiple‑choice questions to create clean context before the AI responds.

1. Define Goal

   Write one line describing the final outcome.

   Example Goal: “Create 3 strong taglines for my AI newsletter.”

2. Set Task

   Tell the AI its job is to interview you to build context, not guess.

   Example Task: “Interview me using multiple choice questions to collect the context you need.”

3. Control flow (Next Steps)

   Give clear rules so it asks questions first, then waits.

   Example Next Steps:

   • Ask 8 to 12 MCQs

   • Each has A, B, C, D options

   • After the last question, stop and wait for my answers

   • Do not generate outputs before I reply

4. Use interview prompt

   Prompt example:

   “Goal: Write a landing page headline + subheadline for my AI prompts course.

   Task: Interview me to build the minimum required context using multiple choice questions.

   Next Steps: Ask 10 MCQs with A to D options. Keep questions short. After Q10, stop and wait. Do not write anything until you get my choices.”

5. Reply with letters

   Answer like: “A, D, B, B, C, A, D, C, B, A”. This removes miscommunication and keeps context tight.

6. Generate concepts from choices

   After you answer, tell it to produce a small set of options based on your selections.

   Example: “Using my choices, generate 4 concept options with a name and 2 line description each.”

7. Compress previews with grid

   Once it generates concepts, ask for a compact comparison to save tokens.

   Prompt example:

   “Generate a 4x4 grid, one concept per grid cell, with name, 1 line idea, and 3 keywords. Then ask which cells I want as standalone versions.”

Note: If the output still feels off, do not rewrite everything. Ask for 3 more MCQs targeting what is missing.
