NVIDIA NemoClaw: Open-Source Enterprise Agent Platform

NVIDIA's NemoClaw applies the CUDA playbook to agents: make the orchestration layer free and hardware-agnostic, then let silicon pull-through follow. The decisive question isn't capability but MCP compatibility — if NemoClaw speaks MCP, NVIDIA becomes the enterprise runtime for the existing ecosystem; if not, they're forking the standard.

Open Weights isn't Open Training

Six compounding bugs across PyTorch → CUDA → accelerate → transformers → PEFT → compressed_tensors to LoRA-tune a 1T MoE — and even then, expert weights don't train. The article is a first-person case study for why "open weights" without training enablement is a weaker form of openness than the narrative suggests. But Workshop Labs sells training infra and benchmarks against Tinker (Thinking Machines) without disclosing any relationship — the pain they document is the demand they intend to capture.
