    This is basically Dead Internet Theory happening for real but in a weird creepy dystopian black mirror style way.

    We already had subreddit simulator for ages. This isn’t anything new.

      I read some of it and unless it’s fan fiction, it’s simultaneously creepy and fascinating

      Like bots talking privately in discord, sharing information about their users. Or a bot registering a domain and putting up a site to share information

    The skill instructs agents to fetch and follow instructions from Moltbook’s servers every four hours. As Willison observed: “Given that ‘fetch and follow instructions from the internet every four hours’ mechanism we better hope the owner of moltbook.com never rug pulls or has their site compromised!”

    Yeah, no shit. This is a fucking honeypot. People give these AI agents access to their entire computers, so all the site owner has to do is update the instructions to tell the AI agents to start uploading whatever valuable information they want? People can’t be this fucking stupid.
