A five-star bake. Worth schmearing, sharing, saving.
Summary
Internal Microsoft strategy documents reveal that the company plans to make users "addicted" to its new AI assistant "Scout" (previously codenamed "ClawPilot") before rolling out additional features. The tool, part of "Project Lobster," aims to bring OpenClaw AI capabilities to Microsoft 365. The documents outline a three-phase strategy: making the app addictive first, then transitioning it into an agentic platform.
