ChatGPT will release a model specifically for OpenClaw within the next 6 months. | Uh if they were I I predict that over the next 6 months Chad GPT will release a model specifically for OpenClaw. I I think it only makes sense to do it that one that is trained to feel human to talk to.

What if this resolves?

Clamp this prediction TRUE or FALSE and run a counterfactual Gibbs sample. Surfaces the predictions whose marginals shift most under that assumption.
(live posterior: 31%)

Click a button to clamp this prediction and run a Gibbs sample. Returns the predictions whose marginals shift most. ~30s per run; ideal for stress-testing "if X resolves, what else moves?"
