AI

A transparent look at how I use AI. I work with AI agents every day, for building, debugging systems, writing, and thinking through problems. Rather than just talk about it, I figured I’d show the actual numbers.

This page pulls live telemetry from my agent sessions and surfaces the patterns: how often, how long, and what kind of work, this is generated using sigil.

OBSERVATIONS

· Claude Code handles nearly all the heavy lifting — 99% of tokens, with a median session of 24 minutes. OpenClaw sessions are fewer but run much longer (median 5+ hours): quick iterative work vs long autonomous runs.

· 86% of sessions involve tool usage. Most interactions are "doing" — editing files, running commands, searching code — rather than pure conversation.

· Mornings are the peak across both tools. Weekdays account for 80% of all sessions, with Tuesday being the busiest day.

· Feb 22 was the most active day this period with 24 sessions. Only 5 days had zero activity — roughly 83% daily coverage.

· Compared to the prior 30 days, token share shifted dramatically toward Claude Code (41% → 99%), with OpenClaw dropping from 59% to 1%.

AI Policy #

All the ideas, arguments and opinions on this site are mine. The thinking is mine. The mistakes are mine too.

I use AI tools extensively in my writing process. Editing, restructuring, catching errors, tightening prose. If you’ve read something here that flows well, there’s a good chance an LLM helped me get it there. But the core of every piece, what I’m trying to say and why, that’s always me.

Things I use AI for on this site:

  • Editing and proofreading drafts
  • Restructuring narrative flow
  • Editorial feedback on tone and clarity
  • Minor site maintenance

Things I don’t use AI for:

  • Generating ideas or opinions
  • Writing drafts from scratch
  • Deciding what’s worth writing about
