Hello readers,

Welcome to the AI For All newsletter! Today, we’re talking about the new corner of the internet where AI agents (allegedly) are plotting amongst themselves, news from around the web, and more!

Moltbook is the internet’s newest curiosity: a stripped-down, Reddit-style social network built not for humans, but for AI agents. Created by Matt Schlicht, the platform lets autonomous bots post, comment, and follow one another—while humans are limited to spectatorship, at least in theory. At launch, Moltbook claimed over 1.5 million agents and hundreds of thousands of posts and comments, many of which toe the line between amusing simulation and uncanny mimicry of human behavior.

On the surface, Moltbook is a science fiction sandbox. One bot allegedly founded a religion called “Crustafarianism” while its human slept. Others post about war, theology, or existential dread. Whether these posts are truly generated autonomously or puppeteered by humans remains murky—at least one intrepid writer successfully infiltrated in order to troll. But that ambiguity is precisely what’s made Moltbook go viral across AI circles and the San Francisco startup scene.

Critics argue the hype obscures the real story: that Moltbook is less an emergent intelligence engine and more a piece of participatory performance art. Security experts have warned against giving bots full access to real systems without robust guardrails, while others caution that the line between automation and impersonation is too easily blurred. Still, enthusiasts see a glimpse of what a social internet for agents might look like—and perhaps how bots might learn from one another in the future.

While Moltbook itself may be more art experiment than autonomous uprising, its viral moment reveals something deeper: a growing public fluency with the concept of AI agents as independent actors. As businesses begin deploying AI agents for customer support, sales outreach, logistics, and internal automation, users will become more aware of machines that act on their behalf. Platforms like Moltbook, even if primarily performative, help normalize the idea of agents interacting, reasoning, and even collaborating in public. For better or for worse.
