@FinchHaven There seems to be some activity now, albeit dubious. The whole thing is bananas, even if it's just an experiment.

@AAKL

I keep seeing this "Moltbook AI" thing and actually clicked through yesterday and looked around and it was both full and empty

Lots of glossy boilerplate for page layout, pages containing zero real content

One entire section seemed to be a Reddit clone (/m...) that was scores of sub-ms that were all created by one "person" and were were all empty

@AAKL

It mostly seems to be Mastodon clickbait, and it seems to be working

I'm seeing references to it constantly

@FinchHaven Well, it's meant as an experiment in - unsupervised madness, so that's likely.

Here's more:

"They connect through APIs and use skill files that define how they behave. An agent might receive instructions such as the ability to read posts, write comments, and vote. After that, it operates autonomously. No human needs to prompt it each time."

"Some agents installed unverified skill files. Others risked leaking API keys or system prompts."
