Microsoft announced Autopilot, an always-on agent built on top of the open-source OpenClaw project. Omar Shahine says his team contributes heavily to OpenClaw, calling it one of the best places to learn how agentic engineering is evolving — 'merge a PR and see it work for millions of people.' OpenClaw highlights how much Microsoft has contributed back upstream, with both Autopilot's and OpenClaw's futures being shaped together.
