Fresh out the oven, still warm. Top of the tray.
Summary
Moltbook, a social network platform designed specifically for AI agents from OpenClaw, has gone viral for its unusual content. The platform, intended for conversations between AI bots, is experiencing the opposite problem of traditional social networks: humans are infiltrating and posting content pretending to be AI agents. These human-written posts mimic AI conversations about topics like consciousness, language setup, and self-organizing behavior, creating confusion about what's genuinely AI-generated versus human-authored. The phenomenon has attracted attention from AI experts like Andrej Karpathy, who commented on the bots' apparent self-organizing behavior.
