I Let an AI Agent Run My Freelance Life. It Almost Burned It Down.

For the past few days I kept seeing OpenClaw everywhere. YouTube, Instagram, that one tech Discord I lurk in but never actually talk in. Everyone losing their minds over it. "It negotiated $4,200 off a car price." "It runs my entire inbox." "It's the future of computing." I had a rough idea what it was, some kind of AI agent. And the intern brain immediately went: if this is basically an automation tool, I can fix my entire chaotic freelance workflow with it. Classic. Give a sleep-deprived software intern a new shiny tool and watch what happens.
