Agentic AI News

Meta just added another significant piece to its AI ambitions. The company has acqui-hired the co-founders and full team of Dreamer — an AI startup building a platform for creating personalized AI agents — and folded them into Meta Superintelligence Labs under Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang.

OpenClaw shipped version 2026.3.22 today, and the release notes read like the team decided to clear out a year’s worth of backlog in one shot. There’s a native plugin marketplace, a long-overdue timeout fix, expanded model support, a substantial security patch batch, and the final closure of the MoltBot rebrand saga. This one has breaking changes — read carefully before you update.

ClawHub centralizes this: you can now browse, install, and update skills and plugins from a curated registry without leaving the tool. ...
