Came across this interesting reddit post recently and it got me wondering if we're just building Rube Goldberg machines to do simple things.
Stuff like listening for new rss feeds, running a diff on it, and showing what's changed has been blown up to a cron job running on an OpenClaw setup that constantly researches the web every few minutes and generate the outcome.

Nom connects to your GitHub and turns your activity into a public feed people can follow. Every PR merge, commit pushed, and release gets auto-summarized into plain English. Your feed is public and shareable. We also auto-generate memes from your commits because why not.
I always wondered, if deep research has an X% chance of producing errors in it's report and you have to double check everything + visit every source or potentially correct it yourself. Then does it really save time in helping you get research done (outside of coding and marketing)? .
It might depend on how much you struggle with writers block. An LLM essay with sources is probably a better starting point than a blank page. But it will vary between people.
I do wonder if this will push web publishers to start pay-walling up. I think the economics for deep research or AI search in general don't add up. Web publishers and site owners are losing traffic and human eyeballs from their site.
