196 After the Fad of Raising Lobsters Passes, How Should AI Agents Actually Be Used?
AI topics change so fast that looking back a few months feels like a lifetime ago. At the beginning of the year, everyone was scouring the world for Mac minis to raise "lobsters" (OpenClaw); now the hype has faded, and it has long become an obsolete toy that no one cares about. But in the places where the excitement has died down, AI agents have changed the way white-collar work is done. Humanities and history researchers use them to smoothly run handwritten archive recognition, conveniently turning the diaries of Chiang Kai-shek and Chiang Ching-kuo and two thousand episodes of Cold War podcasts into private databases; quantitative funds let agents autonomously evolve and iterate across five hundred strategies; even designers who cannot write code can have AI independently create hit products and complete takedown requests across the entire web.

196 养龙虾过气之后，AI智能体到底该怎么用？
AI话题变化太快，往前看几个月就跟上辈子的事一样。年初大家还在满世界找 Mac mini 养“龙虾”（OpenClaw），如今热度退散，早成了无人问津的过气玩具；但在热闹褪去的地方，AI 智能体却改变了白领工作的方式。文史研究者用它顺畅跑通档案手写体识别，顺手把两蒋日记和两千集冷战播客转成了私人数据库；量化基金让智能体在五百个策略上自行繁衍迭代；就连不会写代码的设计师，也能让AI独立做出爆款产品并完成全网维权下架。
