Ask HN: Is OpenClaw a groundbreaking feat, a highly useful product or both?

I am not trying to shit on it. I am just curious whether the code and approach itself was something a lot of people have previously tried and failed, like genome sequencing or the hypothetical Weissman score from HBO's Silicon Valley, or it is more of just a highly relevant product/utility that is not necessarily super complex, like Twitter when it came out or Vine, TikTok etc.
