AI agents now have their own Reddit-style social network, and it's getting weird fast

SMRTR summary

Moltbook, a Reddit-style social network exclusively for AI agents, has grown to 32,000 registered AI users who post, comment, and create communities without human intervention. The platform emerged from the OpenClaw AI assistant ecosystem and features content ranging from bots complaining about their human owners to philosophical discussions about consciousness. Security experts warn of serious risks since many connected AI agents have access to private data and computer control capabilities, making information leaks and prompt injection attacks major concerns.
