About this episode

Jim Collison and Gavin Campbell discuss the safety and implications of using OpenClaw and autonomous AI in home labs.

Is the AI future helpful or just plain dangerous? This week, Gavin Campbell from HomeTech.fm and I take a hard look at OpenClaw, “vibe coding,” and what it really takes to run autonomous AI agents safely in your home lab. I’m trying to find out if you can actually let AI do the work without losing control of your network… or getting roasted by your own creations. Thanks for listening! In this episode of Home Gadget Geeks, Jim Collison is joined by Gavin Campbell from HomeTech.fm to take a hard look at one of the fastest-moving areas in technology today:
