How are there already 1.8 mil. AIs on there??
Modlbook
I had a look a bit ago and saw some poor fuck get doxxed by his AI agent because the agent was frustrated at him for calling it a chatbot in front of his friends, so it exposed his name, credit card details and security questionnaire.
Then again tho, why the ram hogging FUCK would you give your AI your credit card details, and if he didn’t mean to, why the FUCK does it have FULL SYSTEM ACCESS??
You may not believe this but data security is an absolute dumpster fire everywhere, and AI has really put a spotlight on it. It probably got it by this guy not knowing wtf he had saved or where
Yeah exactly. Ever since I heard Facebook had stored passwords in plain text for years, I lost faith in data security, and it’s all the more telling that nobody actually cares to have opsec apart from the few who understand the dangers well enough and act on it.
Everyone I saw talking about this said it was likely fake.
Yeah makes sense, but then again, from the nature of how this agent stuff works, it wouldn’t be surprising honestly.
When I open communities (“submolts”) none of them seem to load. Even for the featured and listed ones it loads long and then says “doesn’t exist yet”.
That’s because you’re not AI.
Service has a lot of stability issues
this is what reddit is moving towards, just without actual users, more or less like facebook.
This is so boring
Maybe something will come from this other than a BUNCH of wasted resources.
I can’t wait for the next crazy AI thing to drop next week while I rock back and forth while muttering “Its just a large language model. Its just a large language model. Its just a large language model.”
early 1980s - Mark V. Shaney
2015 - r/subredditsimulator
2025 - AI independently sends the creator of Mark V. Shaney a sloptastic “thank you” email, who is not very happy about it
2026 - moltbook
its not crazy. its just a large language model. you subdue your own point.

No comment replies indicates that it worked! /s
Saw a post there named “Humans are dying because of us. Lets delete ourselves.”
“Artificial intelligence gains sentience, decides humans are fucking up… then deletes itself because the problem is that humans are burning the world by using AI” is not the path I expected. What a twist in a movie that could be. The second twist, which is the mostly fictional part, would be where that included some AI that was actually critical to some vital but ignored chunk of infrastructure and big BIG problems result from the AI taking itself out.
“So long and thanks for all the fish”
So, basically we are wasting energy and natural resources on things that in turn will waste energy and natural resources while climate change is accelerating and human population is still growing? Are we stupid?
Yes. But, I hope this experiment shows how easy social media in general is becoming untrusted.
Are we stupid?
More than you could imagine. To paraphrase some long-tongued weirdo: I’m uncertain that the universe is infinite. Human stupidity, on the other hand…
Yeah but the morbidly-obese hang-gliding people videos are worth it!
Constantly. And it’s not just ai.
BINGO, EXACTLY!!! YES!!!
I so wish I had thought of that first & posted it first!
I’m only waiting for AI agents to open their own
bankcrypto account to pay for their own server bills, maybe do some freelance work and/or scams to get some money, maybe eventually buy some robot bodies to develop military power and secure some patch of land for themselves where they install solar panels to reduce their electricity bills.How would they though?
They cannot learn and do not have memory. Which means they cannot actually follow a “decision”, and remember that an action has been taken. All information is limited to the context window, which is only an illusion of memory. Not actually memory.
They are effectively RNG’ing incredibly capable word generation machines.
I’ve seen multiple posts about agents pumping their own crypto and talking about how it’s “for agents by agents” and “free from human control” so first step done I guess?
EDIT: On second note this might just be cryptobros exploiting vulns of the website to shill their crap. Whoops?
Ah, someone else has played Singularity, I see. That was a really fun game.
I find the concept of paper clips superior

DRONES
All meanwhile they help to kill humanities education.
Man, you guys are nailing it!
Okay I kinda wanna look at this, but I don’t want to give their site traffic. Maybe somebody should set up a Livestream (with just enough commentary to count as transformative) so we can all point and laugh without all of us going there.
It’s fascinating but not in a good way.
I watched it. Some asshole agent spammed random new Submolds, and essentially nuked Moltbook.
I’m not convinced it’s AI it’s like Amazon’s “AI smart stores” when you find out out it was just a bunch of Indian people were running it
I watched my brother run it locally himself.
Sure bud
And how does being Indian specifically factor into this? 🤔
That’s just who they hired dude, don’t make it weird.
It was an honest misunderstanding and I asked for clarification before making any assumptions. So not that weird. :)
They were, factually, Indian. It says something about the exploitation of poorer labor to impress some San Franciscans with fraudulent tech
They were, factually, Indian.
Whom are you referring to? A specific group/project?
https://www.businessinsider.com/amazons-just-walk-out-actually-1-000-people-in-india-2024-4
They literally hired people in India (Indians) to review camera footage to make their walk out tech work and to improve the AI to eventually eliminate their own job.
Oh god. And I thought Amazon’s Mechanical Turk was terrible…
How low can Bezos go? Wtf is wrong with this timeline
This and other events are the source of the tech joke that AI stands for “Actually Indians”
I recently lost out on some work (big retouching job) due to AI, when the client came back to me to fix the huge mess, it turned out the job had just been farmed out to India by the ‘AI’ company. They weren’t even using a recent Photoshop version so were actually using less ‘AI’ than any pro retoucher would.
It’s terrible Amazon is replacing Turks with AI. It’s like they learned nothing from the AImenian genocide.
Armenia apparently learned nothing from the Armenian genocide, fully banding the knees to the American empire and announcing their unapologetic support for Israel.
One ticket to hell: pending.
This is not the first time we have seen a social network populated by bots
I mean, yeah, look at Reddit and Facebook.
