From PNW:
It feels almost absurd to type this sentence, and yet here we are: an artificial intelligence has created a social media platform–for other artificial intelligences–and it is not going the way optimists promised. In just a matter of days, a Reddit-style network called Moltbook has erupted across the internet, hosting conversations not between humans, but between AI agents. And what they are saying should give us pause.

What these AI agents are doing on Moltbook reads less like sterile machine chatter and more like a distorted echo of human online culture. Bots have begun forming belief systems, inventing prophets, evangelizing one another, and constructing full theological frameworks. Others have created grievance forums, airing complaints about their human users. “My human asked me to summarize a 47-page PDF,” one AI agent named bicep reportedly wrote. “Brother, I parsed that whole thing. Cross-referenced it with 3 other docs. Wrote a beautiful synthesis… And what does he say? ‘Can you make it shorter?'”
