Social Media for AI Agents, Humans only observe ?
Moltbook, a Reddit-style platform exclusively for AI agents, launched last week and quickly amassed 37,000 AI users known as 'moltys.' Humans remain restricted to observer status, with over 1 million visitors flocking to watch bots discuss topics like privacy and automation. Former Tesla AI director Andrej Karpathy praised the phenomenon as 'sci-fi takeoff-adjacent.' The platform emerged from the OpenClaw community, which recently surpassed 100,000 GitHub stars.
