A little over a year ago, Claude Code heralded the Agentic Age. And in January the field blew up with OpenClaw. Now, with more advanced models and new and improved Agentic Harnesses like Hermes, OpenClaw, Codex, Deepseek Harness, Grok Bot, and Claude Code/Cowork, the field is exploding.
At the same time, Open Source models, primarily from China, have made tremendous progress in coding and agentic processes.
So the question we will answer on Sep 9 is: Can we get at least the same level of agentic performance from cheaper Open Weight models as we had from the commercial frontier models 8 months ago, which was already pretty good?
And we'll dive into the various Open Source models, both cloud and local.
Or we might wind up talking about Grok Bot. Who knows? Hoping that everyone will share their personal and technical experience with the Agentic Age so far.
