OpenClaw Releases OpenClaw 2.0: Guided Model Setup, 575 ms Control UI Startup, and One Trust Boundary Per Gateway

The OpenClaw team has just released OpenClaw 2.0. The team shipped nothing for nearly seven weeks, after 106 releases in the previous 230 days. The update rewrites installation and rebuilds the browser Control UI. It also moves sessions and transcripts into SQLite and adds shared cloud sessions. Is it deployable? Yes for single-operator and single-team deployments. No for multi-tenant products. Setup starts from credentials you already have Guided setup now looks for AI access alre

Get smart on it

OpenClaw 2.0 is a major update to an open-source AI agent platform that simplifies initial setup by detecting existing AI credentials and local models, then verifying they work before saving them. The redesigned browser interface now loads 575 milliseconds faster than the previous version and centralizes conversations with supporting tools like file editing and git integration. The update adds shared cloud sessions for multiplayer collaboration, though the documentation explicitly states these are not security boundaries, and includes security considerations around prompt injection defense, with model choice cited as the first mitigation layer. The release is suitable for single-operator and single-team deployments but not for multi-tenant products.

Google releases Gemini 4 Carbon with agent ‘swarm’ feature

Google is rolling out its latest AI model, Gemini 4 Carbon, to the general public after releasing it to a select group of "cybersecurity defenders" two weeks ago. Google claims Carbon is its "strongest model" yet, and capable of competing with the very best systems from Anthropic and OpenAI. Google says Gemini 4 Carbon "pushes the frontier even further" than Argon, referring to the company's other frontier model that launched only last month. The company said Argon will likely

Google Launches Gemini Decisions API With Gemini Decision 1 at $0.10/M Tokens

Google has launched the Gemini Decisions API, powered by a new model, Gemini Decision 1 (gemini-decision-1). The Gemini Decisions API does not generate text. It scores up to 1,000 typed questions against one shared input and returns calibrated probabilities. For developers, this targets the small branching calls inside agents: routing, policy checks, tool selection and grading. Google prices it at $0.10 per 1M input tokens, with zero output tokens billed. TL;DR Size: Context is 262,144 t
