   In truly one of the worst use cases I could imagine for this tech, behold, DenchClaw, an OpenClaw based CRM https://github.com/DenchHQ/DenchClaw

   Just put all your customer relationship information in there, run your business out of it, what could possibly go wrong

     @cwebber ...I'm trying to think what the practical differences between a VibeMBA and a real MBA are and frankly I'm coming up blank.

     Wow that sounds great. Hey don't worry these things never blackmail anyone. Let it know if you're gonna turn it off, I bet it'll make some REAL interesting choices based on your browsing history

     @cwebber I don't understand why they keep seeing it delete peoples' entire codebases and saying "Well I should just give this even more access to everything in my life"

     Yes yes a VibeMBA is not very distinguishable from an MBA. It's just faster and with even more bad decisions. Higher velocity, thanks to AI

     @cwebber This excerpt actually has a lot of insight into why things like this keep happening lol

     It has a CRM focus because we asked a couple dozen hard-core OpenClaw users "what do you actually do", and it was sales automation, lead enrichment, biz dev, creating slides, linkedin outreach, email/notion/calendar stuff, and it's always painful to set up.

     @cwebber Objection! The statement "even more bad decisions" implies that regular MBAs have fewer bad decisions and [citation needed]!

     @wordshaper They can't make bad decisions as fast. This is AI scale bad decision making. Bad decisions at the speed of LLMs

     @cwebber Ah, right! Current MBAs make artisanal, handcrafted bad decisions, while VibeMBAs modernize and automate the Bad Decision Industry™️, allowing us to scale up production of Bad Decisions in ways heretofore only ever dreamt of by Deloitte VPs during speedball benders.

     Frankly this rules. I can't wait to see what happens to everyone who uses this. It's gonna be awesome.

     Everyone who installs this fucking thing deserves it at this point. Burn it all down.

     Look the "you don't need privacy if you've got nothing to hide" guy shows up https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47313376

     Also hi even if that were somehow true (it isn't) do you know anything about credentials

     @cwebber "everybody has something to hide, like for example the credentials for taking money out of their bank account" is a weirdly hard thing to put across sometimes
