Former SWE turned agentic engineer, specializing in agent-driven development and intelligent, cloud-native solutions for finance. I run weststack ai and build.
@steipete@BradGroux@openclaw I think there are a lot of enterprises that want to use/try openclaw. But they still think itโs unsafe. Having Microsoftโs support is definitely gonna help attract them. I was stoked to see all the interest and love for the claw at #MSBuild.
@0x_nik0 Yeah, I mean itโs not like a perfect use case.. but for fun, to see whatโs possible with bright data. Itโs also u know a way to reach people outside your network.
I scraped LinkedIn to find out who's going to Microsoft Build 2026.
84 attendees. 26 countries. Mapped, and broken down by company + role.
Built it in an afternoon with the Bright Data MCP + Claude Code ๐

I wanted to do something with the $50 credit they gave us, so...
Bright Data MCP to pull public LinkedIn posts โ Claude Code to wire it into a dashboard. Didn't spend a tone of time on it, but the result is kinda cool.
Want on it? Post on LinkedIn with #MSBuild2026 or #MSBuild โ it picks you up the next day. Link in the first tweet ๐
The thing that hit me at these events: so much engineering, so many net-new problems. Evals for agent output. Prompt optimizers. Offline/local AI. Managing fleets of agents. LLM memory (3-4 talks on memory alone โ clearly on everyone's mind).
@steipete No worries. I just try to be in the same room with people who are elevating the game. Hopefully Iโll see you at Build, and get to say hi ๐ค
@garrytan haha, very cool. I've been wondering why more people aren't doing this as an experiment. Like we have moltbook. Why not like create an accounting dept/operations dept./whatevs of agents, tell them their job, and see what happens.
@steipete AI vs. AI. Using an AI agent to clean up the mess made by AI agents. We're building things we never needed before AI โ to me, that's a bullish signal for how much opportunity the AI shift will generate.
