Openclaw 101 for Campaign Lab

​A special session for Campaign Lab volunteers exploring the rapidly developing world of AI agents and autonomous workflows.

​In this hands-on workshop, Fatima (sugaroverflow) will introduce tools like OpenClaw, alongside emerging agent systems such as Perplexity, Devin, Claude Code, and other AI tools that can help automate research, gather information, complete tasks, and support campaigning and organising work.

Bring your laptop and your curiosity! We’ll spend time experimenting together, testing tools, and discussing where they’re useful (and where they’re not).

​Things to think about beforehand:

• ​What repetitive research tasks take up your time?

• ​What information do you wish you could gather faster?

• ​What decisions rely on comparing lots of messy information?

• ​What tasks feel under-resourced?

• ​What are some projects you'd be excited to do if you had more time?

​Whether you are completely new to agentic AI tools or already experimenting with them, this session will provide a practical introduction to one of the fastest-moving areas of technology.
