Automating social media with AI sounds like a dream—until your bot goes rogue, hallucinating posts and breaking workflows where every small "win" just uncovers three more headaches. If you’ve ever tried building an autonomous pipeline and felt like real success was always slipping through your fingers, you're not alone.
Welcome to AI Jam: Why and How I Made The Journey From OpenClaw to Building My Own Bot ! Join Kevin Kaminski as he unpacks the honest reality of working with OpenClaw: the pitfalls, the fragile breakthroughs, and why building from scratch often beats fighting an off-the-shelf framework. We’ll pivot those hard-earned lessons directly into live code, building a dedicated social media agent from the ground up to monitor web content, publish updates, and reliably manage multi-channel feeds.
What we'll explore:
💥 The OpenClaw post-mortem: where things broke down and why success felt elusive
🛠️ Building from scratch: architecture of a focused, reliable social media bot
📡 Content pipelines: automating web monitoring and channel dispatching
⚖️ The honest scorecard: real successes, ongoing friction points, and edge cases
Heads-up: this session dives into architecture and live code; a foundational understanding of APIs, scripting, and modern AI tooling will help you follow along seamlessly.
